I was a bad reputation, with an attitude to match
Hell, man, I'm goin' nowhere, and gettin' there lightnin' fast
Twenty-one lookin' thirty, but actin' half my age
Bound to hit a wall before I ever hit the brakes
Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
Always thought somethin' like that might send me on my way
But you took hold of me, like only a woman can
And gave one good reason to live, to a set on dyin' man
When a Friday meets a Sunday
You can't help but see the light
I never believe in angels
'Till one believed me in that night
Turned my off-track into a straight line
Before I turned into a headline
Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
Always thought somethin' like that might send me on my way
But you took hold of me, like a only woman can
And gave one good reason to live, to a set on dyin' man
Woah-oh
Turn a wrong way man one-eighty
Settle down and give another
Yeah, you changed what changed me
So the world won't see another
Codeine, it got Elvis
Whiskey, it got Hank
Always thought somethin' like that might send me on my way
But you took hold of me, like only woman can
And gave one good reason to live, to a set on dyin' man
A sad old dyin' man
