Bound Ta Git Down by Shooter Jennings Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I was born in Tennessee but it couldn't hold me
I told my mama and my daddy that I got to be free
I moved to California where the sun shines all day long
If it feels so good, girl, you know it ain't wrong

[Verse 2]
I started playin' in the clubs, playin' keys
I started chasin' every woman laid a smile on me
Played with Guns N' Roses by the time that I was twenty-three
Yes, there wasn't no rock 'n' roller alive that was rock 'n' roll enough for me

[Chorus]
Yeah, 'cause I wanna get down
Down like a basset hound
Down to the honky tonk [sound?]
Burn this juke joint down
Make Hank proud
Get drunk
Get loud
I'm bound ta git down
Bound ta git down
[Verse 3]
Well I made a few records, I wrote a few songs
I took 'em down to Nashville and set it all up
Ten years on the bus and still checking traffic in Tennessee
See if I end up [drinkin'?] I'll be out of bullets, scream for me

[Verse 4]
Now I got me a house in the Hollywood Hills
I smoke me some weed but I don’t take no pills
I got me a band, we love jammin'
On my gray guitar, on my gray Hammond
I might set up a band with Marilyn Manson
Call it Johnny B. Bad
You know that I'm bound ta git down

[Chorus]
Down like a basset hound
Down to the honky tonk [sound?]
Burn this juke joint down
Make Hank proud
Get drunk
Get loud
I'm bound ta git down
Bound ta git down

[Instrumental Interlude]
[Chorus]
Oh I wanna get down
Down like a basset hound
Down to the honky tonk town
Burn this juke joint down
Make Hank proud
Get drunk
Get loud
I'm bound ta git down
Bound ta git down
