Lyrics
Give him two shots of tequila
It'll dry up his eyes
With a temporary smile tonight
He said, "Someday you'll remember
To take your own advice
Leave all the people to their current side"
Tennessee by way
One arm on the wheel
Driving down the road
Counting miles
He said, "Boy you know it's someday
Go put on your suit and tie
Just give me your last dime
In exchange for advice"
He said, "Don't go down that road
Unless you want a broken heart
To be on your precious mind"
He said, "Don't go down that road
Unless you want a broken heart
To be on your precious mind"
He said, "You'll fall to the floor
Because the weight of forgiveness
Carries a heavy load"
Today it seems like the only thing that's dancing
Are my four worn tires
As they hit the rumble strip
To the right
It's been singing soft melodies
So you don't close your eyes
When it's thirty below outside
I ain't seen a proper street sign
In a long long while
But if the road runs out
I'll paint my own damn lines
He said, "Don't go down that road
Unless you want a broken heart
To be on your precious mind"
He said, "Don't go down that road
Unless you want a broken heart
To be on your precious mind"
He said, "You'll fall to the floor
Because the weight of forgiveness
Carries a heavy load"
It doesn't matter what you're drinking
Or if it's poured too strong
I already know what you're thinking
And I'm tired of being told
You're not living, you're just dreaming
Your only worry is it's cold
Cold, cold
But don't go down that road
Because your broken little heart
Will be on a precious mind
