The Marshall Tucker Band

A New Life

Hey, mister, got a road map?

I'm kinda lost

Gotta get to Georgia tonight

Don't care what it costs

Been down in Denver jail for four long years

And I'm so homesick I could die

Got a sweet woman back home

Waitin there for me

Least in all her letters, Lord

She said she'd be

Waitin there with open arms

Born new life for me

And I'm so homesick I could die

Shot a man in Denver

Over some money owed

So she told me

That I had to go

But I paid my time

And a new life is gonna be mine

And a new life is gonna be mine
