Dead Horse

Sick of this life, not that you'd care
I'm not the only one with whom these feelings I share
Nobody understands, quite why we're here
We're searchin' for answers that never appear
But maybe if I looked real hard I'd, I'd see your tryin' too
To understand this life, that we're all goin' through

Then when she said she was gonna like wreck my car
I didn't know what to do

Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny but you'd think by now I'd be smilin'
I guess some things never change, never change

I met an old cowboy, I saw the look in his eyes
Somethin' tells me he's been here before
'Cause experience makes you wise
I was only a small child when the thought first came to me
That I'm a son of a gun and the gun of a son
That brought back the devil in me

Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny but you'd think by now I'd be smilin'
I guess some things never change, never change

I ain't quite what you'd call an old soul
Still wet behind the ears
I been around this track a couple o' times
But now the dust is startin' to clear, oh yeah

Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny but you'd think by now I'd be smilin'
Ooh yeah, I'd be smilin', no way I'd be smilin'
Ooh smilin'

Sick of this life, not that you'd care
I'm not the only one with whom these feelings I share
