Ain't Much Scares Him Any More

He ain't been to the mountain top
But he's seen the canyon floor
It ain't the fall, it's the sudden stop
Ain't much scares him anymore
He ain't no hero, but don't hide from nothin
You don't like it, he can show you the door
Just a boot leather fella tryin to get by
Ain't much scares him anymore

When he came to he was hangin by his straps
Upside down in the ditch
He heard somebody say I don't believe it he's alive
He's one lucky son of a bitch
He said his luck ran out a hundred miles ago
Drinking whisky with the hippies in the rain
He blew a point three when they put him in the wagon
All that there was left for him was pain

He ain't been to the mountain top
But he's seen the canyon floor
It ain't the fall, it's the sudden stop
Ain't much scares him anymore
He ain't no hero, but don't hide from nothin
You don't like it, he can show you the door
Just a boot leather fella tryin to get by
Ain't much scares him anymore

He passed out stoned on a twelve day bender
Woke up under three feet of snow
Tried to cash his chips cuz of whisky and a woman
They bring you in for that they don't let you go
But he went off into that night
And got lost somewhere in the snow
The speed didn't kill him and the tar never tried
The whisky woulda done it but he was worth more alive

He ain't been to the mountain top
But he's seen the canyon floor
It ain't the fall, it's the sudden stop
Ain't much scares him anymore
He ain't no hero, but don't hide from nothin
You don't like it, he can show you the door
Just a boot leather fella tryin to get by
Ain't much scares him anymore
