Nothin' Holds Me Down

Down and out by the Kum & Go

Countin' out my change

Hustle up another dime or two

Get ready for the passin' lane

I got a long way to go

But a fast horse to ride

And nothin' holdin' me down

Don't you worry mama

I'll call on the telephone

Don't ask me where I'm goin'

All I know is where I've gone

And nothin holdin me down

Dealer dealt the cards on down

The riverboat she prayed

I said I heard of Jesus

But my sevens never came

I got a long way to go

But a fast horse to ride

Nothin holdin me down

Don't you worry mama

I'll call on the telephone

Don't ask me where I'm goin'

All I know is where I've gone

Nothin holdin me down

Diamonds up against the wood

15s in my trunk

Police want to run me down

But they couldn't change my luck

Got a long way to go

I got a fast horse

And nothin holdin me down

Don't you worry mama

I'll call on the telephone

Don't ask me where I'm goin'

All I know is where I've gone

Nothin holdin me down
