Wrongside of the Road - Nine Pound Hammer

Drinkin' the rest of last night’s beer, staring at channel 5

Headin' down a one-way street, it’s a wonder I’m still alive

Nothin' left to do, nothin' left to say

But light another cigarette and mark off another day

I’m travelin' down the wrong side of the road

Save your advice, I ignore what I’m told

We’re all takin' bets on how much longer I can last

I’m on the wrong side of the road, waitin' to crash

All those friends I used to know, they never come around

They copied their life off a TV screen, grew up and settled down

Reminisce in bars is all that they do now

Like if they talk about it long enough, it’ll all come back somehow

I listen to the preacher talk about the God of Love, the one we’re supposed to

fear

I’d sit real still in my good clothes, listening to what we wanted to hear

Talk about the things that are supposed to set you free---Jesus or Jack Daniels,

it’s all the same to me
