People say I need to open up
About the rut that I've been in
But that kind of stuff just ain't for me
Cuz I'm doin all I can do to be a better man
Well I don't need your sympathy
The best thing that you can do is leave me alone
Just give me an open road and brother I'm gone
Cuz I'm on my steel horse tearin' up a back road
Where the river bends and pine trees sing
A southern lullaby in the dead of the night
To chase my demons away
I can't outrun the devil on my shoulder
It ain't that easy ya see
I'm in a three way fight between the good, the bad, and the outlaw side of me
I was taught since I was a kid that some things in life you take on the chin
But other times boy, you better fight back
Cuz you can talk about me all that you want but when it comes to family, I'm a smokin' gun
(haha) You best believe
So if the way I handle my own business bothers you,
You know where to find me on old 222
Cuz I'm on my steel horse tearin' up a back road
Where the river bends and pine trees sing
A southern lullaby in the dead of the night
To chase my demons away
I can't outrun the devil on my shoulder
It ain't that easy ya see
I'm in a three way fight between the good, the bad, and the outlaw side of me
Cuz I'm on my steel horse tearin' up a back road
Where the river bends and pine trees sing
Cuz I'm on my steel horse tearin' up a back road
Where the river bends and pine trees sing
A southern lullaby in the dead of the night
To chase my demons away
I can't outrun the devil on my shoulder
It ain't that easy ya see
I'm in a three way fight between the good, the bad, and the outlaw side of me (X2)
(Hahah, you don't want to see that side of me cuz)
