oh I have seen the world through whiskey bottle
and yes I walked my share of gravel roads
I've worn holes in my [bad word] #39; from trouble
and I've seen ... the holy ghost

well i been tempted by the devil himself
but the devil he done met his match
I guess not even the devil wants to mess with
With some tall walkin' texas trash

i wear my scars like they were badges
There's been times when I had to lay low
And I've seen my share of grief and sadness
And I've heard lots of whistle blows

Many a man is gonna raise their fist
Very few is gonna take the chance
I guess they knew better than to tangle with
Some tall walkin' Texas trash
