 well  my little brother's raising  hell living down  in Texas
 he  probably ought to be in  jail from the stories  that he tells us
 of  whiskey nights and rodeos the  strippers down in Austin
 he's  had himself some real  good times if he could  just recall them
 now  his money's running  out and there's a job in his  future
 and  it's looking like  his rambling days are done
 so  he's sizing up his choices and  a job just ain't one
 he  don't know which way to run
 
 As  for you and winter, it  may be cold but that don't  stop the rain,
 the  holes up in your roof  make keeping dry a losing  game
 the  stairwell's always wet , but  you wouldn't really mind if
 the  tears would dry up in your  crying eyes
 Now  your boy, he's coming  home but that just ain't that  good for you
 started  ending long  ago you know that much is  true
 so  dry your eyes and say goodbye because  he just ain't the one
 decide  which way to run
 gonna  decide which  way to run
 
 as  for me, the same old  shit keeps pulling me on down
 I  never been quite able  to pick myself up off the ground
 always  got big plans, but  they're always in the works
 and  I swear they'll pay  off if my luck don't give  out first
 well  here I am again  I don't know if I’m right
 but  I can tell you that  I’m having fun
 so  I give it one more shot because  this race, it ain't quite done
 I  hit the ground and run
 gonna  hit the ground  and run
 gonna  decide which  way to run
 gonna  hit the ground  and run
 and  my little brother's raising  hell living down  in Texas
