All Choked Up Again

I'm all choked up again

With these two hands and the rage I'm in

I think I just killed a man

I think it was my old man

I hadn't seen him in years and now he's bleedin' tears

And his head is in the palm of my hand

All choked up again

Have you ever met up a little command

That couldn't break a poor boy's chin?

And here it all is again

Went all in I got stuck in a jam

That's what you get when you're a gamblin' man

That's what you get when you're a gamblin' man

Well, every day you seem to dig a little deeper

Into nothin' that is left behind

Up all night 'til it's early in the mornin'

And the whole damn world's on fire

I close my eyes and I wanna start runnin'

But my legs are broken and tied

Everything around me starts spinnin'

And I realize I'm buried alive

This ain't no place for kids

But when you're raised in a bucket of rain

You either die or you learn to swim

You either die or you learn to swim

I just need to see my baby again

She took my hand there from where it began

Said she would love me with trouble I was in

Said she would love me with trouble I was in

And every day I seem to dig a little deeper

Into nothin' that is left behind

Up all night 'til it's early in the mornin'

And the whole damn world's on fire

I close my eyes and I wanna start runnin'

But my legs are broken and tied

And everything around me starts spinnin'

And I realize I'm buried alive

I'm all choked up again

With these two hands and the rage I'm in

I think I just killed a man
