Ballad Of Dusty Lyrics

Ohhh...yeah, yeah...yea boy...look a here...
Man, I done ten more lines than Etch-A-Sketch in my time
better catch you fetchin` by nine; better blast your right mind
if soft makes you feel hard; hard makes you feel soft
got a fifty, a pack of cigarettes, a brew and a cough
and I`ve been doin` this stuff from often to off and on
I`ve been face down all alone in the rain in the early mornin`
next wife into alimony, it goes on and on and on it
dog-gone it I`ve been on it so long I`m my only opponent
should’ve know it, I know I had a ring but I had to pawn it
I had to hold it; I stole it off of the top of a toilet
from a friend, for my sins, fingerprints are in a folder
that the police holds; I get colder as I get older, y’all
I don’t want to live and I don’t want to die
I just have to laugh ‘cause I don’t want to cry
My mother left me alone and I never met my dad
I’ve been abnormal since birth tryin’ to wreck the pad
I’ve was raised by my Gramps since I was three years old
and all I ever wanted, was to be out of control
I made a clever disguise, became brilliant with lies
and pretended that I loved everything I despised
I worked hard to be liked and over did it at times
to much pressure to walk the line, so I committed some crimes
dropped out of school in the ninth; ran into cooler than I
had the weed, brews and pints and friends that love to fight
the fools that I beat-up and all the times that I got beat down
I got reputation always desired; now I’m tired
I don’t want to live and I don’t want to die
I just have to laugh ‘cause I don’t want to cry
I’m always rhymin’ on the break down; ‘cause all I do is break down
when nobody’s lookin’, tears runnin’ like greyhounds
my remedy is to clown, laugh and talk garbage
‘cause what’s really goin’ on is the 18-wheeler of baggage
imagine a whole lineage of illiage, drug-addicts and idiots, mental patients,
my family tree is straight insidious like it was water with alcohol
but I wouldn’t have it any other way; I love y’all!
I don’t want to live and I don’t want to die
I just have to laugh ‘cause I don’t want to cry
I don’t want to live and I don’t want to die
I just have to laugh ‘cause I don’t want to cry
I don’t want to live and I don’t want to die
I just have to laugh ‘cause I don’t want to cry
I don’t want to live and I don’t want to die
I just have to laugh ‘cause I don’t want to cry
