Standard (EADGBE)

Drinkin' all night in a tavern

My head is a mighty heavy load

I feel like I've been run over

Like a poor little critter on the road

Chorus

Poor little critter on the road,

Where were you tryin' to go?

Life's got a bucket full of woes for

The poor little critter on the road, oh

The poor little critter on the road

I must have had me a good time

Cause I'm feelin so poorly today

Somehow I can't quite remember,

That's one of the prices that you pay

(repeat chorus) (riff)

I can remember the drinkin'

And dancin on into the night

Somethin' about some romancin'

Then I started up a fight

variation of chorus:
