lyrics

Well I've been goin' down to Georgia, just to spill away the time
I got back from California, wasn’t good enough for them and their kind
They’ll reduce me down to nothing, sometimes it makes me want to die

Well I saw my Betty Taylor, she been drinkin' all my wine
Said it belonged to no one else, she had gotten it off that vine
She got problems up to here, well I sure as hell am glad they’re not mine

But she got darting eyes, she got eyes of steel, she won’t rest for a moment till she gets her fill, tell me
Why did I come back here, just to spill away the time
She’ll reduce me down to nothing, sometimes it makes me want to die

So I went up to Old Missouri, just to see my Uncle Jed
He’d been selling them narcotics, so he could fill up his big head
Well I thought I’d pay a visit, so I could fill him up with lead

Close those darting eyes, close those eyes of steel, he won’t rest for a moment till he gets his fill, tell me
Why did I come back here, just to spill away the time
He’ll reduce me down to nothing, sometimes it makes me want to die
