"Waymore's Blues" lyrics

"Waymore's Blues"
(originally by Waylon Jennings)

Well, I woke up this mornin' it was drizzlin' rain
Around the curve come a passenger train
Heard somebody yodel and a hobo moan
Jimmy he's dead, he's been a long time gone
Been a long time gone
Been a long time gone

If you want to get to heaven, gotta D-I-E
You gotta put on your coat and T-I-E
Want to get the rabbit out of the L-O-G
You gotta make a commotion like D-O-G
Said like D-O-G
Big B-A-D D-O-G

Well, I got a good woman, what's the matter with me?
What makes me want to love every woman I see?
I was travelin' when I met her now I'm travelin' again
And every woman she sees looks like a place I came in
Looks like a place I came in
A place I came in

I got my name painted on my shirt
I ain't no ordinary dude, I don't have to work
I ain't going to work, y'all
I got to play
