Lord, this morning, when I woke up
I wanted that whiskey in my coffee cup
Had last night ringin´ in my head
Telling me I oughta go back to bed

I´m in South Dakota
I keep on stayin´ behind
I´m in South Dakota
Trouble ain´t hard to find

I thought I might go take a ride
Changed my mind when I looked outside
I can´t stay, but I can´t leave
Or get myself away from me

I´m in South Dakota
I keep on stayin´ behind
I´m in South Dakota
Trouble ain´t hard to find

Nights are long as the day is cold
Stayin´ alive is gettin´ old
Nothin´ is everythin´ I got left
Starin´ down the devil, but I´m scared to death

I´m in South Dakota
I keep on stayin´ behind
I´m in South Dakota
Trouble ain´t hard to find
I´m in South Dakota
I keep on stayin´ behind
I´m in South Dakota
Trouble ain´t hard to find
