If you ever see me walking down the side of the road   Do you ever stop and wonder why   Would you think it's lost that I paid the cost   Stop and give a poor boy a ride   And forget my past      'Cause if I ever get home, I'm never gonna worry 'bout the things that I could've done   'Cause I've done a lot of things I could've done better   But now it don't matter none      'Cause I've raised my glass      I fell in love and then lost touch   I dropped it and broke her heart   I drove off a cliff   And I barely missed   Walkin' days through the park      With a selfish boy      But I have not forgot that the food in the pot ain't cookin' for a boy like me   I been fightin' all night with the dogs in the alley, looking for a bone to eat   Been starving to death      Everybody's troubled with the hustle and the bustle   The payment on the house is late   If I ever have a problem like that   I guess I'll be in pretty good shape      You can kiss my ass goodbye      'Cause when I feel the wind blow   See a ghost in the road   And headlights are a beautiful sight      And out in the desert   I can sit under them heavens   And watch the sun keep settin' for miles      And here comes another song      Then I take a pen and a little piece of paper   I scribble on down the lines   And what you're hearing now    Is something I found   Hidin' way down inside      With the cellar of my heart      And I hope everybody had a real good time   I hope I didn't bring you down   These ain't sad songs   So don't take 'em wrong   I haven't been home in a while      Well, I'll see you all around
