Ain't Livin' Long Like This Lyrics - Singles - Andy Griggs

I looked for trouble and found it, son 

Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun 

I'd try to run but I don't think I can 

If I move I'm a dead man 

(Chorus) 

Ain't livin' long like this 

I can't live at all like this, can I baby 

He slipped the cuffs on behind my back 

Then left me freezing on a steel rail rack 

They got 'em all in the jailhouse, don't they baby 

I ain't livin' long like this 

Can't live at all like this, can I baby

Grew up in Houston off a wayside drive 

Son of a carhop in an all-night drive-in 

He drove a stock car to an early death 

All I remember is a drunk man's breath 

Ain't livin' long like this 

I can't live at all like this, can I baby 

We know the story how the wheel goes 'round 

Don't let 'em take you to the man downtown 

I can't sleep at all in the jailhouse, can I baby 

Ain't livin' long like this 

Can't live at all like this, can I baby 

I live for Angel 

She's the roadhouse queen 

Make Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee 

I want to love her but I don't know how 

I'm at the bottom of the jailhouse now 

Ain't livin' long like this 

Can't live at all like this, can I baby
