[Verse 1]
Same old jukebox playin' at the Colorado County Line
I've been here a time or two
When I hear John-boy singin' I miss old friends of mine
They don't make 'em like they used to do

[Chorus 1]
And now I'm playin' for some boys up in Oklahoma
'Cause they know every song I sing
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
It's a long way from the bottom
Shame on me for never learnin' anything

[Verse 2]
When we made our first record we didn't spend a dime
Still the best one we've ever done
Here's to second chances, gotta get it right this time
Hop back on that horse and let her run

[Chorus 2]
And tonight we're ridin' up to Amarillo
For a one-night stand at the Golden Light Café
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
It's a long way from the bottom
Shame on me for never learnin' anything
[Verse 3]
Last night we played to no one, there's nobody in this town
Guess all my old friends have moved away
So I'm headin' home to get my feet back on the ground
And live to fight another day

[Chorus 3]
I can't wait to get back home and see my baby
And plant a garden in the spring
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
It's a long way from the bottom
Shame on me for never learnin' anything
Smoke 'em if you got 'em
It's a long way from the bottom
And shame on me for never learnin' anything
