Been way too much whiskey used to drown out the pain
There’s been way too many lonely women calling your name
There’s been too many nights down at the end of the bar
Hear the wrong way on a one-way track won’t get you too far
All your friends think you’re crazy, so they all quit coming round
Your woman lays awake crying at night ’cause you let her down
You’re at the end of a short rope, and it’s a shame you can’t see
That the wrong way on a one-way track ain’t nowhere to be
So old friend, could you tell me
Where you think you’re gonna go?
When no one wants to hear
Your sad song anymore
And old friend, could you tell me
How you plan to survive?
When the wrong way on a one-way track gon’ kill you ‘fore you die
You’re gonna miss out on Heaven ’cause you just can’t seem to learn
You hurt everyone you love, it’s no wonder that old whiskey burns
You’re just one more in a long line who never seem to understand
That the wrong way on a one-way track ruined a many good man
So old friend, could you tell me
Where you think you’re gonna go?
When no one wants to hear
Your sad song anymore
And old friend, could you tell me
How you plan to survive?
When the wrong way on a one-way track gon’ kill you ‘fore you die
Yeah, the wrong way on a one-way track gon’ kill you ‘fore you die
