I got my hands in my pockets cause it's been a long walk home. I'm still a little shocked that you don't want me anymore. I was so foolish thinkin you'd be.
I got the chrome all shined up.. Look how the moon just climbed up.. Who knows where we'll wind up, oo.. A finger hangin' on your belt look,. Finger flippin' for the right tune..
I've been racing, chasing, caught up in the grind. Damn near going out of my mind. And it's getting old real fast. I need a new time zone, zip code, point of view.
Welcome to Paris, home of the Tigers.. State champs '63.. Gospel singing at the park next Thursday.. 2 for 1 at the Dairy Queen.. . Well, congratulations, Bobby and Amber..
I work down at Ashberry Hills. Minimum wage, but it pays the bills. Cleaning floors and leading hymns on Sunday. . Katherine Davis, room 303. Sweetest soul you ever could meet.
I got a shadow and it follows me around. Wherever I go, it moves without a sound. My odds are evil, that hunts me down and gets me. Finds a way to trick me.
People say I'm a little shy and I keep to myself. (oh well). I ain't much for small talking. Don't wanna waste my breath. Everything we've been saying has already been said,.
One Mississippi, two Mississippi. Counting down the seconds. Standing in the wreckage of love. On a cold grey Jackson dawn. Oh I just can't watch this, sure can't stop this.
If I could be the reason your hair's a mess,. The bass drum beatin' way down deep in your chest,. If I could be the voice on your radio,. Then I could be your long ride home..
At first you gotta learn how not to listen. When she opens up her heart. You try your best to make it all about you. Yeah that's the easy part. Take all your promises and break them.
You put me on a roller coaster, fly me on a plane. You send me to another planet, get inside my brain. I knew right when I met you I would never be the same.
I come from the heart of the Heartland. Where pictures shows where the corn grows. In rows and rows of summer greens. And winter snows. And it goes on.
All I can do is try to drink you in. and do my best to. soak up all that sugar from your skin. But then you had to go. and kiss me. you made me fall a little bit.
You light up every streetlight.. You stop every heart when you start that smile. but somehow you're still lonely.. Oh let me show you why you're the only.
I'm going away for a while. Don't care how many miles. It takes it get wherever I go. As long as I can take it slow. And take my time. Finding a brand new heart.
Put me on a train. Put me on a one-way runway sky-high aeroplane. Girl, I really need a change, get away, see the smile on your face. Find me a row boat, let it flow, on a river pointed your way, I'm thinking let's be spontaneous.
You look good in the palm of my hands. Watch the light round your feet just dance. Feel your sweat pressed against my skin. Girl you're fire. you're fire.
The second she walked through the door, I caught a buzz. One taste from your lips knocked me out just like a drug. The rest of the night's kind of blurry.
It happened on a Sunday. Outside when the sun was shining. That look on your face. Ow it hit me so hard inside when. I could see how the light was fading.
instrumental. . Well I just met you a couple hours ago. My last night in town, hey wouldn't you know. I get hooked on a girl with blue diamond eyes. Down here in Mexico, oh.
