|
The road was cold the fog was heavy |
|
Her headlights were just like a ghost |
|
She said you look innocent but |
|
I ain't crazy |
|
I'm just too tired to drive on alone |
|
If you don't want me to shoot ya |
|
You'll keep both hands on that wheel |
|
She was sweet with just enough poison |
|
I wasn't sure just what to feel [Chorus:] |
|
So I drove her into a sunrise |
|
In the middle of nowhere |
|
USA And she slept peaceful as a baby |
|
Once she put that .45 away |
|
When she woke up we talked bout livin |
|
Where she was goin, where |
|
I had been |
|
I lit a smoke she talked bout |
|
Jesus How he had power to raise the dead |
|
We watched falling stars from her truckbed [Chorus] [Solo] [Repeat Chorus] [Chorus 2:] |
|
And we parked neath the burnin sunrise |
|
And I held her against my chest |
|
She said I never would have shot ya |
|
I said I know, your gun it had no lead. |
