Start Even

MERLE TRAVIS

""Spoken: Now I ain't proud of my bad reputation,
and it's a shame the way my past has been,
course you're gonna say I caused the situation,
and this awful fix that I'm in.
Well I stumbled into some bad romances and lost my
balance no doubt. I'm sort of a victim of circumstances...""

But I've got it all figured out
I like to wake up in the morning
And when the truth was told
The'd say Tex never donated nothing
But then ole Tax never stole
I just like to start even, start even that's all

I like to wake up in the morning
And sy there's two things I never done
I ain't never fought with nobody
But then I ain't never run
I just like to start even, start even that's all

I'd like to wake up in the morning
Without a sweetheart or a wife
Or without some little gal hanging around
Saying Tex done ruined her life
Wish I'd never made nobody happy, made nobody sad
Got nobody tickled or made nobody mad
Then I could just start even, start even that's all
And then that's all

Now I never dabbled in high society
Don't reckon I would if I could
I'm a little too good for the bad folks
And a-way too bad for the good
If I don't soon lose my misery
I'm gonna tell you one and all
One of these mornings I ain't gonna wake up at all
Then I could just start even, start even that's all
That's all, that's all
