lyrics

I’m the sister of a hellraiser, the daughter of an old tomcat
I was playin’ the piano in a honky-tonk before you bragged about that If it’s a song about hard hard livin’, it’s a song I’m livin’ in
If a rough road goes there, you can bet I’ve been

When the girls was playin’ at jumprope, I was playin’ the men for fools
I was drownin’ in a sea of whiskey when they were dreamin’ ‘bout Liverpool Ever since I was a child I was fast and wild, I guess I’m a wild one still ‘Cause when you say ‘you can’t’ -- you know I will.

I’m like a record that won’t wear out, I’m like a wheel that spins on You can’t hardly stop rolling, when you’ve been round too long.

Down in Flagstaff, Arizona, there’s a tavern where I’m barred They say I caused a riot back in ’78 by rockin’ the joint too hard If you can’t take the beat, get out of my kitchen now
There’s fire on my fingers, and fever on my brow.

This ain’t an old-folks reunion, this ain’t a Johnny Cash song
They can’t make you walk no line when you’ve been round too long.

Won’t you put me in Kentucky when my time on earth has ceased ‘Cause out of all the men who hurt me, Jack Daniels hurt me least
If I raised some Cain, lived a little insane, it never was a plan of mine Lord to be an angel ‘fore my time!

All of you young people preachin’ ain’t had the chance to go wrong Well it’s too late to go straight when you been round too long.
I’m like the Sun that keeps burnin’ -- I’m like a wheel that spins on You can’t hardly stop rolling, when you’ve been round too long.
