Jelly Roll – Train Tracks lyrics

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
Living low class
We just white trash
We can't roll class
We got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard
We do so bad
We'd go so far
But we can't look pass
Them god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks

[Verse 1: Jelly Roll]
I remember rocking tall tees and baggy jeans
Remember staying up late and just bagging weed
And at a younger age
I was unafraid
Remember Mom and Me kickin' it on the summer day
Sometime the world so cold, I wanna run away
I know this world gets cooler than the hunger games
Crashed on couches
And slept on floors
And I always had a crush on the girl next door
But to tell y'all the truth
I never tried to holla though
Hid my lack of self confidence, behind a lot of jokes
Thought i'd never make it, out my situation
I was bound by so many stipulations

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
Living low class
We just white trash
We can't roll class
We got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard
We do so bad
We'd go so far
But we can't look pass
Them god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks

[Verse 2: Jelly Roll]
Life got hard
But we just came harder
Spent some time in the gutter by the rain water
A lost soul
I was born a ramble
Woke up one day
My life was in shambles
Ain't afraid to gamble
Put it all on the line
This neighbourhood ain't' shit
But i'm calling it mine
Rent man callin' trippin' on the rent
Got a baby on the way
With a chick that I ain't with
And my Momma needs some pain pills
She says she's feeling pain
I gotta hustle y'all
I don't know no other way
On these train tracks
Starring at the other side
I'll make it over then one day
That's on my mothers life

[Chorus: Jelly Roll]
Living low class
We just white trash
We can't roll class
We got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard
We do so bad
We'd go so far
But we can't look pass
Them god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks

[Verse 3: Struggle]
Between a rock and a hard place
I'm bummed with a court case
The bills at the house, way past due
Ankle bracelet
With a curfew
Water cut off
Daughter need to use the bathroom, what can I do?
God damn, the lawyer want 10 racks
Whistle blowin', and i'm standing on them train tracks
How long in line? Just a matter of time
Before the chickens come home and the eggs hatch
Got them all in one basket under the bed
With a banger and a ski mask, cause i'm ready
Grass look greener, over there
So I pull in his yard, I park the chevy
I'm here now!

[Hook: UnKnown]
So hard
So bad
So far to look past
The train tracks
I hate those train tracks
So hard
So bad
So far to look past
The train tracks
Oooooooooohh (Train Tracks)

[Chorus / Outro: Jelly Roll]
Living low class
We just white trash
We can't roll class
We got green grass
Across them train tracks
Across them train tracks
We try so hard
We do so bad
We'd go so far
But we can't look pass
Those god damn train tracks
I hate those train tracks
