Kentucky Too Long

Been in Kentucky too long

I done come here from Arkansas

Ain't running from no Johnny Law

Please believe me

I ain't in Kentucky for my health

I done came here for something else

Everybody knows that dry breath

It ain't greasy

Back in Texas last week

That's a-when things got bleak

Be careful of what you speak

Might come find you

Chocktaw just this morning

They started shooting out without warning

If it hadn't been for my woman

Had me sneaking in

Man, I really feel it coming on

I've been in Kentucky too long

Been in Kentucky making something out of nothing too long

Daddy was in Vietnam

It says it on his old sedan

He's been fighting with Uncle Sam

About something

News been talking 'bout a bank

Wasn't me this time for goodness sake

But if it was, I'd a split the take

You really know me

I guess I'm doing just fine

On Big Sandy, in a doing time

That woman's 'bout to have my child

She says she needs me

I ain't in Kentucky for my health

I done came here for something else

Mama used to say dry breath

Sure ain't greasy

Man, I really feel it coming on

I've been in Kentucky too long

I've been in Kentucky trying to make that woman love me too long

Man, I can feel it coming on

I've been in Kentucky too long

I've been in Kentucky making something out of nothing too long

Been in Kentucky too long

Been in Kentucky too long

Man, I really feel it coming on

Been in Kentucky too long
