"Die Alone" lyrics

I lost one too many bets
Stayed up smokin' cigarettes
All tuned up on bottom shelf relief
Whiskey waltzing 'round the room
Hopeful just to get back soon
Spirits gently lay me down to sleep

No one cares to hear a man
So damn drunk that he can't stand
Cryin' 'bout the things that he can't change

Diesel engine mausoleum
Friends are here, but I don't see 'em
Pray for mercy, deliver me from pain

If I'm goin', I'm goin' out my own way
Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again
When the bus gets back to Greenville
I'll already be back home
I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

Crossed every line, but saved a few
So I could have some more to do
To keep me from ever really comin' down
So highway, carry me away
I got bills I've got to pay
Swear I'll give my all to this next town
Could I die on stage tonight?
Just to be in your spotlight
You could see me, let the whiskey drown

Diesel engine mausoleum
Friends are here, but I don't see 'em
Pray for mercy, deliver me from pain

If I'm goin' then I'm goin' out my own way
Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again
When the bus gets back to Greenville
I'll already be back home
I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone
I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

If I'm goin' then I'm goin' out my own way
Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again
When the bus gets back to Greenville
I'll already be back home
Don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone
I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone
