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
