Lyrics
every day the same damn thing
With my back against that damn eightball, could get by with no food or sleep, my sweet wife was my best friend
lookin for some other way to fly
layin in that motel bed
With my back against that damn eightball, and it just never seemed to point the way
my life was just an old routine
With my back against that damn eightball, could get by with no food or sleep
Every day the same damn thing, my whole life went through my head, and it just never seemed to point the way
Ain t nothin like the cost of livin high, with my new found sobriety, the high cost of livin
ain t nothin like the cost of livin high
i ve got the time to sit and think
It ain t nothin like the cost of livin high, the high cost of livin High, the high cost of livin
just leave that stuff alone
An sit there in my pickup truck and pray, and it just never seemed to point the way
Could get by with no food or sleep, every day the same damn thing
I d find my way across the tracks, i d find my way across the tracks Cost, piled up to the sky
i couldn t even tell i was alive
could get by with no food or sleep
Ain t nothin like the cost of livin high, with my back against that damn eightball
I was just a normal guy, i ve got the time to sit and think, i couldn t even tell i was alive
And three days straight was no big feat, piled up to the sky, my life was just an old routine
Life was just a nine to five, ain t nothin like the cost of livin high
i didn t have to think or talk
But i traded that for cocaine and a whore, hangin with my wilder friends
Just reminded me that i was lost, an sit there in my pickup truck and pray, and threw away
i ve got the time to sit and think
The high cost of livin, and sleep right through the calm before the storm, i had a job and a piece of land
my whole life went through my head
just leave that stuff alone
This prison is much colder than, this prison is much colder than, i d pass out on the bedroom floor
Watchin as the cops kicked in the door, my whole life went through my head, she never asked
And crazy was becomin my new norm, the high cost of livin
This prison is much colder than, and it just never seemed to point the way
with my back against that damn eightball
I d find my way across the tracks, and it just never seemed to point the way Living, could get by with no food or sleep
every day the same damn thing
Of all the things i had, that one that i was locked up in just yesterday, she knew i d been
And sleep right through the calm before the storm, i was just a normal guy
ain t nothin like the cost of livin high
My life was just an old routine, just leave that stuff alone
i d pass out on the bedroom floor
I ve got the time to sit and think, could get by with no food or sleep, could get by with no food or sleep
With my new found sobriety, the high cost of livin
Starin at that giant cross, that southern baptist parkin lot Johnson, an sit there in my pickup truck and pray
I was just a normal guy, and sleep right through the calm before the storm
Just leave that stuff alone, the high cost of livin, my sweet wife was my best friend
And sleep right through the calm before the storm, ain t nothin like the cost of livin high
And sleep right through the calm before the storm, another deal Of, the high cost of livin
life was just a nine to five
And crazy was becomin my new norm, lookin just to score, my whole life went through my head
With bills and pressure, i had a job and a piece of land
but i traded that for cocaine and a whore
Ain t nothin like the cost of livin high, and sleep right through the calm before the storm
I couldn t even tell i was alive, of all the things i had, my life was just an old routine
