Lyrics
Okemah down to Reno and no pay I've seen
Reflecting on experiences from Okemah to Reno, encountering challenges without financial rewards.
But for a lesson in patience and geography
Acknowledging the lessons learned in patience and understanding geography through life's journey.
From the bottom of the gutter to the top of OPP
Describing a rise from a low point to the top, possibly referencing OPP (Ontario Provincial Police).
I had a lot of good times but the freedom ain't free
Despite enjoyable moments, emphasizing that freedom comes with a cost.
Load it up
Encouraging action to face challenges.
Pack it in
Preparing for a journey or task.
Watch the stone roll down that hill again
Witnessing the repetition of difficulties, symbolized by a rolling stone.
The sun is shining
Noting a positive external factor (sunshine) despite internal struggles.
My mind is fried
Expressing a mentally exhausted state.
And you'll find me here on the losing side
Acceptance of being on the losing side despite challenges.
Loaded down and rollin', burnin' up the white lines
Describing a journey with a heavy load, possibly drug-related ("white lines").
Wild runnin' crazy like an Arizona sage fire
Comparing actions to a wildfire, suggesting recklessness and impulsivity.
Doin' all the things that I know are dumb and why
Acknowledging engaging in knowingly foolish behavior.
I been down this road before just a couple of times
Reflecting on past experiences along a familiar path.
Load it up
Encouraging readiness for challenges.
Pack it in
Preparing for a new endeavor or challenge.
Watch the stone roll down that hill again
Observing the recurrence of difficulties, symbolized by a rolling stone.
The sun is shining
Highlighting positivity in the external environment despite internal struggles.
My mind is fried
Expressing a mentally drained state.
And you'll find me here on the losing side
Acceptance of being on the losing side despite challenges.
Well you can't teach stupid, but how hard they tried
Acknowledging the difficulty of changing inherently foolish behavior.
Seems like I gravitate to any losing fight
Noting a tendency to choose losing battles.
From the bottom of my heart down to what's left of my mind
Reflecting on personal struggles from the heart to the mind.
If you ask me no questions then I'll tell you no lies
Requesting not to inquire deeply, suggesting a preference for avoiding uncomfortable truths.
Load it up
Encouraging action to face challenges.
Pack it in
Preparing for a new endeavor or challenge.
Watch the stone roll down that hill again
Witnessing the repetition of difficulties, symbolized by a rolling stone.
The sun is shining
Highlighting positivity in the external environment despite internal struggles.
My mind is fried
Expressing a mentally drained state.
And you'll find me here on the losing side
Acceptance of being on the losing side despite challenges.
