            Song Lyrics 
            
 
 
 
 
 I never saw a town where I threw them raises down 
Didn't know the lonesome sound of a midnight train 
The kind that calls my name, I was born to play the game 
Even if it's all in vain, call me what you want. 
I'm bound to tell the truth the way that gambler's rarely do 
They be tying up your noose and calling you 'friend' 
If it was up to me, like the bluebird, you'd be free 
Oh this life ain't what it seems if you catch my drift. 
Rich men pretend to be poor 
Poor folks only want a little bit more 
What they never had before 
And it's a crying shame. 
My daddy worked the land 
And mama raised me with her hands 
We all do the best we can 
With the cards we're dealt. 
I ain't one to beg or plead 
But I could sure use some relief 
Those who label me a thief for standing up tall 
And there's a woman on my mind 
For her I'd gladly give my life 
And the little girl by her side 
That wears my name. 
A one-trick pony knows 
That it's all about the show 
Life is but a rodeo 
And you can write that down. 
I best be moving on 
You turn your head and I'll be gone 
In this world I won't be long 
Just like you.
