my dear [bad word] my patience is waning
I don't give a [bad word] anymore

for 6 years I waited
angry and [bad word] I don't give a [bad word] anymore

I've been locked up, been locked down
I've been held up in a showdown
I waited for you all the while

my gal I've been drifting
from Raleigh to Reno
my blood summons me to the road

my look's never good
but I did what I could
I don't give a [bad word] anymore

I've been held up in bus stops
I've been lonesome in land lock
and I thought of you all the while

your rope's getting tighter
my standards are higher
I don't give a [bad word] anymore

oh stiff boots and rawhide
I'm done with my old life
I don't give a [bad word] anymore

I've been locked up been locked down
I've been held up in a showdown
I waited for you all the while

I've been stood up been broke down
I've been better back in this town
I'll saddle up soon and be gone

I'll saddle up soon and be gone
