Lyrics
Too many Camels and too much wine. Too many nights in those smokey dives, Playing my guitar and singing them old tunes. Too many burgers with them biggie fries. Too many biscuits with the gray piled high. Now I'm a dead man walking. Walking around with the blues I'm a dead man walking. Just a dead man talking I'm a dead man walking, talking and playing the blues. Too many women and too much smoke. Too many parties; life's become a joke. Ain't gonna' last cause the reaper's on his way. Too many doctors and hospital stays. Ain't got no money just got bills to pay. I'm a dead man walking. Walking around with the blues. Too many heartaches and to much pain. Too many woes, I've got nothing to gain. I'm just waitin' on fate and the sound of the final call. Too many licks that I haven't played. My hands are soft and my mind is delayed. And I'm a dead man walking. Walking around with the blues.
