Lyrics
I've been a hell of a highway man
Home's been a hotel room
Days run together
Dreams burn out when you're runnin' on whiskey fumes
Woah
My life's been a damned ol' rodeo
Woah
And I want you to know
I'd turn my back on my best friend
If that's what it took to hold you again
Stand on the shore
Turn back the tide
Just to feel your body close to mine
Walk through the fire with holes in both of my boots
Just to wake up with you
Small town cop in nowhere Alabama
"Son why you goin' so fast?"
I just pointed down at the picture
That I keep on my dash
Woah
I'm a runaway train tonight
Woah
Soon I'll be holding you tight
I'd turn my back on my best friend
If that's what it took to hold you again
Stand on the shore
Turn back the tide
Just to feel your body close to mine
Walk through the fire with holes in both of my boots
Just to wake up with you
Woah
My life's been a damned old rodeo
Woah
And I want you to know
I'd turn my back on my best friend
If that's what it took to hold you again
Stand on the shore
Turn back the tide
Just to feel your body close to mine
Walk through the fire with holes in both of my boots
Just to wake up with you
Yeah just to wake up with you
