Ain't Worth the Powder

Ain't Worth the Powder - David Allan Coe

I came up the hard way

And fought with my back to the wall

Sometimes down to nothin'

But right now babe we've got it all

Looking back now

When it comes down to facing the truth

Ain't worth the powder

To blow me to hell without you

That's my Silver Eagle

And my name up in lights

And those big blue white diamonds

They can't keep me warm late at night

Here in the spotlight

My dreams have come true

But I ain't worth the powder

To blow me to hell without you

Well you know if the time ever comes babe

When it's down to just win lose or draw

I don't Carewhat they take

They can take what they want to

As long as they leave you

'Cause you're the most precious thing of all

Take my Silver Eagle

And my name up in lights

And those big blue white diamonds

They can't keep me warm late at night

Here in the spotlight

My dreams have come true

But I ain't worth the powder

To blow me to hell without you

No I ain't worth the powder

To blow me to hell without you
