Il testo della The company i keep

My mama told me, your life is such a wreck
Your dumber than dog shit is what my daddy said
I was just thirteen when they showed me the door
I keep their picture but don't look at it no more

My first wife told me, you need to get a life
My third wife told me to get another wife
I brought a bottle and the van's parked by that tree
So come on out with me, if you want to be number four

Sometimes i feel like shit
Sometimes that ain't half of it
Sometimes i'm so high i'm scared to go to sleep
Sometimes i'm lower than the company i keep

Ain't held down a job since 1984
I get by holding up convenience stores
I get by on liquor, guns and luck
But i'm scared to death which one might run out first

Sometimes i feel like shit
Sometimes that ain't half of it
Sometimes i'm so high i'm scared to go to sleep
Sometimes i'm lower than the company i keep

I seen my past in everything that i despise
I've seen my future and i'm scared to close my eyes
Is that my ghost that i see in my fears
Or just my reflection in my mama's tears

Sometimes i feel like shit
Sometimes that ain't half of it
Sometimes i'm so high i'm scared to go to sleep
Sometimes i'm lower than the company i keep

Sometimes i'm lower than the company i keep
I pray the lord, my soul to keep
