Take my chances
And I take my pay
Take me a ride on a westbound train
'Cause I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more
When I saw my rider, she was
She was level with the floor
And I ain't no killer, no
And I ain't no thief
But I got this feeling
They're gonna bury me
So you know I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more
When I saw my rider, she was
She was level with the floor
You know her daddy got money
And her, her momma too
They said, "Son, we don't want to see her hanging 'round the likes of you"
And that's why I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more
When I saw my rider, she was
She was level with the floor
You know I'll miss you, baby
I'll miss seeing you around
Wish I could be there when they laid you in the ground
But I got to leave you, baby
No, I ain't coming 'round no more
When I saw my good girl, you know
She was level with the floor
So, take my chances
And take my pay
Take me a ride on a westbound train
'Cause I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more
When I saw my rider, she was
Level with the floor
