GWell I woke my head up Emmoaning on the Cmotel Gfloor
GGot that old maid knocking, Emhoping she don’t Cknock no Gmore
And I’m Dfeeeeling I’m feeling kind of Glow
GGonna load that van up, Emrun it off the Cold tight Groad
GGonna throw my hands up, Emcause I ain’t at the Cwheel no Gmore
And I’m Dfeeeeeling, I’m feeling like the 
Chead is the Gtail, now the Chead is the Gtail
Im Emchoking on my Cown smoke Gtrail
Better Emrun, better Crun but you’re Dsusgood as Cdone
My Gfate be an Ciron Grail, my Gfate be an Ciron Grail
GSo it goes, so it goes and just keeps going, EmShoveling the Crich black Gcoal
GWell the brakeman must’ve missed that whistle blowing, JEmust screaming as your Cown back GToils
And I’m Dfeeeeeling at the end of my Grope
GWell a tic tac toe at a window seat, Emstrumming on the Cold banjGo
GWell a couch that folds is a reason to cheat, a Emreason only Cno one Gknows
And I’m Dfeeeeeling, I’m feeling like the 
Chead is the Gtail, now the Chead is the Gtail
Im Emchoking on my Cown smoke Gtrail
Better Emrun, better Crun but you’re Dsusgood as Cdone
My Gfate be an Ciron Grail, my Gfate be an Ciron Grail
GWell I got….that notion.  To Emjump out the Cskin I Gwore
GSet fire to that ocean, Emwalking through my Cown back Gdoor
And I’m Dfeeeeeling, I’m feeling like the 
Chead is the Gtail, now the Chead is the Gtail
Im Emchoking on my Cown smoke Gtrail
Better Emrun, better Crun but you’re Dsusgood as Cdone
My Gfate be an Ciron Grail, my Gfate be an Ciron Grail
