I gotta put this life down
I'm tired of running around
I gotta put this life down
I'm tired of running around
Never know where am going to lay my head
Very sound am sleeping in my own bed
I'm moving very fast
At the rate am going, a man can't last
Tell my time, time and time again
I'm gonna look to the end
I'm gonna put this life down
I'm tired of running around
I gotta put this life down
I'm tired of running around
Hanging in the streets
Three and four Ks a week
When I finally came home
My clothes stack like cooking greasy
So weary and tired
Couldn't do nothing all day
When I finally go home and jam
The boss ain't come and pick your life baby
I'm gonna put this life down
I'm tired of running around
I gotta put this life down
I'm so tired of running around
I lost my woman, my house
My brand new car
I thought I was smart
But I didn't get any far
Now they are locking me up
When am not important
But it will turn in days
Before I could get to go home
I gotta put this life down
I'm tired of running around
♪
When I came to my senses
I finally, finally woke up
It wasn't too late
Here I am still as me
But all my felt triumphs are going astray
I gotta put that, put this life down
I'm tired of running, running around
Never know where am going to lay my head
Very sound am sleeping in my own bed
Time and time again
I tell myself, tell myself
I'm gonna lose, lose in
I gota put this life down
I'm tired of running, running around
I gotta put this life down
Said I'm tired of running, running around
I'm gonna put this, put this life down
I'm so tired of running, running around
Put this life down
