I Ain't Ever Satisfied Lyrics

Steve Earle I Ain't Ever Satisfied

I was born by the railroad tracks
Well the train whistle wailed and I wailed right back
Well papa left mama when I was quite young
He said, "Now one of these days you're gonna follow me, son"

I ain't ever satisfied
I ain't ever satisfied

Now I had me a woman, she was my world
yeah well I ran off with my back street girl
Now my back street woman could not be true
She left me standin' on the boulevard thinkin' 'bout you

I ain't ever satisfied
I ain't ever satisfied

I got an empty feeling deep inside
I'm going over to the other side

Last night I dreamed I made it to the promise land
I ain't ever satisfied
I was standin' at the gate and I had the key in my hand
I ain't ever satisfied

Saint Peter said, "Come on in boy, you're finally home"
I ain't ever satisfied
I said "No thank you Pete, I'll just be moving along"
I ain't ever satisfied

I ain't ever satisfied
I ain't ever satisfied
I ain't ever satisfied
I ain't ever satisfied
