Being mad can make your eyes poor like the kind of love that makes your chest sore when there's nothing left to live for something offers you a hand Sorry to add to the confusion But you will probably see me cruising Just know that's not the problem It has always been the solution broke down in Minden at a truck stop just awaitin' on a black top someone to offer me an ice pop but they don't serve those down in hell that's got to be my biggest fear to be stuck stranded here that's why I'm begging you to pick me up on the hottest damn day of the year So please don't go out of your way to mind me I'll just sit under my lime tree grab the perfect one to squeeze realize that it could be that way but that's the way it has to be So don't feel bad when you go out and dance see if those boys will give you half a chance while you wear yourself a prettier dress than you would ever wear for me Where did you put that damn golden crown it stays lost but it is never found while they toss and throw you around think of me laying you down C'mon baby let's seal our fate cause I'm tired of feeling second rate and I want to put my fist through some glass every time you mention his name Unlike him I am easy to please but I can't offer you a diamond ring but I can give you a sunset in the state of hospitality

The devil swings a blazer over his left shoulder we've done more business now than I can remember a sneer in his grin, a flask tightly gripped in his hand He's counting every dollar to send to his dealers saving just a few to buy his smokes with no filters he's getting his fix tonight and taking those confident strides Well, I couldn't help but notice some tears in his eyes as he passed the ten car train that night devil may cry when there's no one in sight but damn what a shame that he's trying to get right damn what a shame that he's trying to get right damn what a shame he keeps losing that fight Struttin' past the turnstile he stopped at the diamond and under the lightpost his pistol was ashinin' that handle sitting just above his belt The devil never shy in any sticky situation he always played it cool with his ways of persuasion he's getting his fix tonight and taking those confident strides All filled up with shame but it's overturned by pride he can't forget his name no not tonight

The Letter 02:55
If you know you found your heaven why do you keep cryin? That man up in the sky he don't look like he's trying and you feel wasted, wasted so damn wasted And if I wrote you a letter would you keep it in mind that cryin over him is a waste of your time and face it now's your time so don't waste it It seems to me that drinking looks a lot like drowning and more each day he likes the way that's sounding he can taste it, now he's wasted so damn wasted broken body, broken soul but what you've got shines like gold the road we walk I know it's long, it's dark, and it's cold but you'll always find a way or so I'm told

Everyone gets tired of standing where they are you see the same damn people in every single bar lord I love this town but if I stay I'm nothing but another heartbreaker like you I could follow my dreams and live a life on the run but there ain't a lot of money in the things that I want my pockets stay empty and the road gets tough but it's another heartbreaker like you just another heartbreaker like you I found myself a lover and she's tender and she's kind the type of honest woman that's truly hard to find I know I don't deserve her cause I'll never be true I'll be another heartbreaker like you I heard a little talk about a ring around your finger little band of gold means he'll probably never leave you so alone I'll make a toast here's to hoping he's a cheater and another heartbreaker like you just another heartbreaker like you I was born a sinner, should've been a saint could've been a killer and I like it that way but changing my perspective is a thing I'll never do I'm another heartbreaker like you I look towards the sky should I be needing something knees in the dirt and my hands in the air but holding out for him's got me waiting here for nothing he's another heartbreaker like you
5.
If you stayed you could've had a life with him you could've been a wife to him if you stayed but nowyour days belong to another man you never meant to take his hand but darling now that's changed I'm not here to say you regret the fall because it would've happened after all it's our actions, not our feelings we can change Sometimes I know that you can't see I'm hard at work on who I should be but I hold out for you if you hold onto me If you stayed I'm sure I would've moved along and sang another girl this song but you walked away well love was made but I never thought it'd last with you I'd give ever word I had to you and darlin love was made

The Fly 03:36
Well the north country weather was killing me I had to set my sights down south I bathed in the rivers of Tennessee just to wash my worries out I got a big ole mouth I can't keep closed I got tears that fall like rain and if I can get out of this damn old town surely I can forget my name Well there ain't no use in crying Mississippi mud won't ever dry and I'm too young to not die trying to live my life out on the fly I played roulette with the interstates so that I wouldn't lose my head cause the place I know I can't sit still is in the comfort of my own bed blame it on my snake like tongue blame it on my pride blame the man I long to be cause I know now he can't hide Well you know that sun will rise and fall just where I need to be let it take me lord from everything I held so sweet

Out Tonight 03:29
Morning light bleeds through my blinds tattooed horizontal lines run down my face and across the bedroom's floor Sweat now stains my sheets Been out walking in my sleep from the looks of it, I was out there for a while Can't help but wonder who the hell am I just where I might end up tonight Well maybe I'll go out tonight and find another heart to break or just see how much more the one my god gave me can take When it all goes down it burns so good enough to make your stomach ache Well but clarity is the stiffest pour of drink Well it all takes too much time sorting out my heart from mind hell I guess I'm losing a race I thought I'd won and another drink might do the trick but it would seem I've lost my sense of pride of hope and dignity Oh how the hell did I ever come to be well a person that could make you feel so empty Let me break your heart tonight I said tonight

Center Line 03:25
Still a hundred miles to go the way you'll greet me I don't know fate's made a habit of keeping us apart With one eye on the road the other's watching time move slow I can never find the right place a the right time but I can get there faster holding that center line From the second I turn into that once familiar drive oh I wonder if your heart still beats the same I know that I can't win crippled by your pride but I'll beg and plead if you will let me try and if that don't work it's back to that center line I'll admit at times I'm low I'm not good at letting go Baby it's hard for any man to sleep alone But you'll keep me waiting and I've been waiting for too damn long

LLC 04:59
Say those words take me home cause you know I won't be asking frightened little pup all wit but with no guts and who I am is faded now I have too much to drink liar lover cheat it's a tossup who you'll meet but where are you lady love won't you come and pick me up won't you come and clean me up I'll play my hand take a chance dance with women at the bar it don't matter who you are you aren't ever getting far And no I won't keep you long any time you got will do just make it something quick and cruel I've always been your fool

Heavyfooted 03:07
Well you know you've had enough if you can hear where he's walking those feet of his get heavy and he slurs when he is talking all them summer nights spent drinking just to have a story to tell soon he'll be howling at the moonlight and giving all the neighbors hell And these are hard times baby he don't care about his health if that bottle looks empty well he's just being himself And if the night gets heavy lay him down easy be glad he didn't find himself a fight well no he's just broke the porch light like a deer inside the headlights when she walks into a room in his chair he's getting up in no position to assume he'll be a smooth smooth talker when he can barely walk most nights he'll come up empty but tonight boys he'll come up soft And these are hard times baby but he don't care about his health if that bottle looks empty well he's just being himself and when the night gets heavy she'll lay him down easy looks like he's finally doing something right cause they're talking dirty in the porchlight These are hard times baby but you got to fight for yourself with that whiskey blood boiling you don't care about no one else when the shoves get heavy sirens come blaring and everybody stumbles out of sight now they're turning off the porchlight

Runnin' Home 04:14
The sweetest voice it calls me it calls me in the dark well I guess my dreams coming true lady hope she's beautiful I see her in my mind I close my eyes and picture you The days will run together and the nights I don't rest If I walk while I sleep well the further I'll get down the road where you lay down the road where you lay My shirtsleeves are making their way up my arm well I guess I'm growing up put a tie round my neck like a noose for the carefree child that I once was the blue ridge mountains or a colorado spring I don't care where I'll be if you're right here with me when I wake to the day when I wake to the day Why don't you hum a tune? Why don't you sing me an old hymn? A hymn that you know Let your voice call me and I'll come runnin' home It's hard to imagine my days without you the ones before my life began and I'd see the whole world but it won't settle me til I have you in my two hands til I have you in my two hands

Where are you lover? tonight I lie in bed alone you hold me like no other and strengthen every bone And lately I've been lazy I get lost standing around where are you lover? I know you're begging to be found where are you lover? sure you've been sleeping for a while and I know you must get tired wearing that same ole smile where are you lover? and at times well it's nice but no one's ever really happy alone and if no one way is right how the hell can I keep doing it wrong you only break when you fall where are you lover? they used to come and go with ease you never thought there'd be another that could bring you to your knees where are you lover?
