Things You've Been Chasing

Got me a race horse about 19 hands high Lord he's a fast one, wish you could see him fly But he hasn't, one me a race this year Drilled me an oil well, drilled a dry hole Drilled me another, where'd all my money go? I'm still waiting for my well to come in These things you been chasin leave you empty my friend The only thing that we have is this time until it ends So mend all your fences, sing a wild song Cause it won't be long before we're all gone Tried the acid, the pills, the cocaine Sure love my whiskey, until the next day But they ain't ever gave me what I need Had me a good job making the big bucks But I'm gettin real tired, thinking bout giving it up Cause it hasn't fed my soul in years These things you been chasin leave you empty my friend The only thing that we have is this time until it ends So mend all your fences, sing a wild song Cause it won't be long before we're all gone --- Things You've Been Chasing - Turkeyfoot
