Half Haggard and Hurtin'

Lord knows this whole world

Is a weary place for the wicked

Long black train rolling out

Everyone is trying to earn them a ticket

Now I can't say if I'm ever gonna make it

But I'll sure as hell give it a shot

Now I ain't hopeless but this faith I'm holding

Is about the only damn thing I've got

Yeah, I'm halfway out of control lost my soul

And I don't know if I can get it back

And I'm long gone from anyone that I know

My happy days are surely in the past

I've lived a life of love and loss

I've made mistakes and paid the cost

And drugs and alcohol sure ain't working

I'm rebel heart without a cause

This lonely life is a heavy haul

Half haggard and hurtin'

How long can the hands of time

Keep me wandering these streets like a ghost

When every passing signs seems to read like an endless gravestone

I wasn't always meant to be with gravel dirt beneath my feet

But now it seems I'm digging me a home

That gatekeeper is turning the key

Hell, it looks like I'm never going home

Yeah, I'm halfway out of control lost my soul

And I don't know if I can get it back

And I'm long gone from anyone that I know

My happy days are surely in the past

I've lived a life of love and loss

I've made mistakes and paid the cost

And drugs and alcohol sure ain't working

I'm rebel heart without a cause

This lonely life is a heavy haul

Half haggard and hurtin'

For all the things that I've done

That setting sun's a loaded gun

And God, it just keeps burning

I hope forgiveness comes for all my wrongs

It's Heaven sent

It won't be long 'til the devil is knocking

Maybe I deserve it

Oh, I'm half haggard and hurtin'

Yeah, I'm half haggard and hurtin'

Yeah, I'm halfway out of control lost my soul

And I don't know if I can get it back
