The Day You Die Lyrics - Cigarettes & Truckstops - Lindi Ortega

You said you'd love me 'til the cows come home, 

Well I'm hoping that they all go blind. 

Get lost out on some dirt back-road, 

And just hang around for someone else to find 

You said you'd love me 'til the end of time, 

So I'm staring at that clock on the wall, 

Everyday I give that thing a wind 

And pretend that I ain't waiting on you call 

Oh why do I gotta do all the silly things I do 

Just trying to keep this love alive? 

Why does it gotta be so damn hard for me? 

Just don't say you'll love me 'til the day you die 

You said you'd love me 'til the trains don't run, 

So I'm calling up that old porter-man, 

I gotta make that train roll on, 

Well you might not, but I sure give a damn
