I killed a man and I dumped him in the river And I don't feel sorry for the things I've done He pushed and pushed until I pulled that trigger Now for three days, I've been on the run There's only so much in this life that a man can take But I've got cocaine and coffee to stay awake This long white line, it keeps on getting longer With every mile that I stay on this road I miss my wife, but I guess I shouldn't have wronged her This old boy is carrying a heavy load There's only so much in this life that a man can take But I've got cocaine and coffee to stay awake My kids will all be grown next time I see them And I hate that they'll grow up without me there But I've still got this grass and this bottle of Seagram's My sins are so heavy, I can't lift a prayer There's only so much in this life that a man can take But I've got cocaine and coffee to stay awake There's only so much in this life that a man can take But I've got cocaine and coffee to stay awake I've got cocaine and coffee to stay awake
