I wake up every mornin'
Put on these ole boots
And I can't help but wonder
Why they walked away from you
But here I go now
Ramblin' down this path
Guitar in my hand
Demons on my back
Yeah, I'm stubborn
Hell, I know
Who in their right mind would let that woman go?
Well, how far must my feet take me along?
Down this road of sorrows, hellos, goodbyes
Baby, I'm long gone
And how many hearts will slip
Right out of my hands?
It's the trials and tribulations, baby.
Of a guitar man.
Don't ask me why I do
It's hard for me to say
I just pray and hope
It'll all make sense one day
Each time I think
I might just settle down
These boots they find the door
And a one way out of town
Will I ever rest my head?
I just might be lonely
til the day I'm dead
Well, how far must my feet take me along?
Down this road of sorrows, hellos, goodbyes
Baby, I'm long gone
And how many hearts will slip
Right out of my hands?
It's the trials and tribulations, baby.
Of a guitar man.
Well, how far must my feet take me along?
Down this road of sorrows, hellos, goodbyes
Baby, I'm long gone
And how many hearts will slip
Right out of my hands?
It's the trials and tribulations, baby.
Oh, why is this life so damn crazy
For a guitar man?
