Momma I've missed you, don't worry about me, I'm just living, I wish you, could come and see me,
Yeah I've been a little lonely, but please I really don't need, your sympathy,
Yeah I still feel it, she broke my heart you know that time will heal it, I've done some crying yeah
Well I admit it, but if you see her make dam sure, that you say,

I'm just fine, and I'm down here living reckless in Texas,
And I intend to stay, yeah I'll get by, out here living reckless in Texas,
And I think these just might be, the good ol days,

Well I found some work out here, swinging a hammer, well it don't pay much, about ten bucks an hour,
Well I sweat all day, then come home and shower, then I throw a bottle down and go to town,
Well I still miss her, and what we could of had, it makes me angry, sometimes I get so mad,
But momma promise, you won't tell her that I still get sad, just tell here,

I'm just fine, I'm down here living reckless in Texas,
And I intend to stay, yeah I'll get by, out here living reckless in Texas,
And I think these just might be, the good ol days,

I'm just trying to get myself together, I've been through some hard times and stormy weather,
Women and whiskey, make me feel a little better sometimes,

But I don't know what I feel,
And I don't know if I will,
And I don't know if I still,
Know what I am doing here,

But I'm just fine, and I'm out here living reckless in Texas,
And these are the good ol days, yeah I'll get by, out here living reckless in Texas,
Wouldn't have it any other way, yeah I'm just fine, I'm out here living reckless in Texas,
And I intend to stay, yeah I'll get by, out here living reckless in Texas,
And I think these just might be, the good ol days
