waylon jennings - no women, no wine lyrics

[verse 1]
the first time on an oil rig, i was lonely, i was cold
a hundred men, a lot of machines, like they were looking for gold
i worked that hole for 80 straight days, till the stuff came up like a flood
i don’t know when, i don’t know how, but a little drop got in my blood

[chorus]
i live out here like a pioneer, away from the easy places
i got no friends but the oil rig, and these familiar faces
no women, no wine, working all the time, but it’s satisfying to me
and if there’s oil beneath my feet, this is where i wanna be

[verse 2]
i work 12 hours, i’m off 12 hours, i hear thе sounds even when i’m sleeping
thе bit keeps turning, going down and down, like a giant heart keeps on beating
when you drill for days, and you finally hit oil, that’s what it’s all about
most times, we don’t find nothing, so we gotta move further out

[verse 3]
in all kinds of weather, it’s too cold, too hot, or too wet
i’m tired of times and hungry too, but i ain’t never quit yet
i miss my family and my hometown, and i go there now and then
pretty soon, i’ll get restless, i can’t wait to get back again
[chorus]
i live out here like a pioneer, away from the easy places
i got no friends but the oil rig, and these familiar faces
no women, no wine, working all the time, but it’s satisfying to me
and if there’s oil beneath my feet, this is where i wanna be
