robbie fulks & linda gail lewis – round too long lyrics
[verse 1: linda gail]
i’m the sister of a h-ll-raiser, the daughter of an old tomcat
i was playin’ the piano in a honky-tonk before you bragged about that
if it’s a song about hard hard livin’, it’s a song i’m livin’ in
if a rough road goes there, you can bet i’ve been
[verse 2: linda gail]
when the girls was playin’ at jumprope, i was playin’ the men for fools
i was drownin’ in a sea of whiskey when they were dreamin’ ’bout liverpool
ever since i was a child i was fast and wild, i guess i’m a wild one still
’cause when you say “you can’t” – you know i will
[chorus 1: linda gail]
i’m like a record that won’t wear out, i’m like a wheel that spins on
you can’t hardly stop rollin’ when you’ve been ’round too long
[verse 3: linda gail]
down in flagstaff, arizona there’s a tavern where i’m barred
they say i caused a riot in ’78 by rockin’ the joint too hard
if you can’t take the beat, get out of my kitchen now
’cause there’s fire on my fingers and fever on my brow
[chorus 2: linda gail]
this ain’t an old-folks reunion, this ain’t a johnny cash song
you can’t make me walk no line when i’ve been ’round too long
[verse 4: linda gail]
won’t you put me in kentucky when my time on earth has ceased
’cause out of all the men who hurt me, jack daniels hurt me least
if i raised some cain, lived a little insane, it never was a plan of mine
lord, to be an angel ‘fore my time!
[chorus 3: linda gail]
all of you young people preachin’ ain’t had the chance to go wrong
well it’s too late to go straight when you been ’round too long
i’m like the sun that keeps burnin’ – i’m like a wheel that spins on
you can’t hardly stop rollin’ when you’ve been ’round too long
