Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

Most of my lfe I've been runnin' around 
Playin' and havin' a ball
And maybe I've been on a party too long 
These mem'ries are fond to recall
You see we've got this thing 
About women smokin' and good alcohol
Now I'm lookin' for a homelife 
And clean smellin' sheets 
And all the soft places to fall

The women we've known have been many 
But they don't understand us at all
Though we've spent many a long hours 
Hopin' some old love would call
Surely somebody somewhere still wants us 
Or don't nobody wants us at all
We're lookin' for a homelife 
And clean smellin' sheets 
And all the soft places to fall

Most of our lives we've been outlaws 
Slept with our backs to the wall
I'm a rambler I'm a seeker 
And we're gettin' weaker 
A whole lot more likely to fall
We're tired of the rocks and brambles 
Those barbed wire fences and all
We're lookin' for a homelife 
And clean smellin' sheets 
And all the soft places to fall

Most of our lives we've been outlaws 
Slept with our backs to the wall
I'm a rambler I'm a seeker 
And we're gettin' weaker 
A whole lot more likely to fall
We're tired of the rocks and brambles 
Those barbed wire fences and all
We're lookin' for a homelife 
And clean smellin' sheets 
And all the soft places to fall
