Twisters: The Album Soundtrack Lyrics

I keep chasing that same old devil
Down the same old dead-end highway
Riding that storm running through my veins
Like a shot down tailspun airplane
Scared of nothing and I'm scared to death
I can't breathe and I catch my breath
But I keep chasing that same old devil
Down the same old dead-end highway

Ain't no love in Oklahoma
Just the whistle of a long black train
You'll know when it's coming for ya
Riding in on the wind and rain

I got saved in the same Red River
The same Red River tried drown me
It ain't knocking me down, I'm standing my ground
With the whole world falling all around me
I keep running, but I'm standing still
Pray for peace, but I need the thrill
So I keep chasing that same old devil
Down the same old dead-end highway

Ain't no love in Oklahoma
Just the whistle of a long black train
You'll know when it's coming for ya
Riding in on the wind and rain

Ain't no love in Oklahoma
Just the whistle of a long black train
You'll know when it's coming for ya
Riding in on the wind and rain
Ain't no love in Oklahoma
Just the whistle of a long black train
You'll know when it's coming for ya
Riding in on the wind and rain

A rattlesnake kiss, a buzz you get
When the whiskey burns and the nicotine hits
The devil you know, a taillight glow
Yeah, a heartbreak kid when you're moving too slow, come on

The restless wind, you can't fence in
That barb on the wire, that wild in the horse
When you hear that train, when the sirens ring
Better batten down, baby, it's a hell of storm

Hey hey, ooh
I'm a renegade rebel with my pedal to the floor
Hey hey, ooh
Them boys don't know I ain't in Kansas anymore

Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Hell nah, I ain't in Kansas anymore (I ain't in Kansas anymore)
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

A movie scene, a fever dream
When you catch your breath, you can come back down
You're torn apart like a trailer park
But you still can't wait 'til I come back around

Hey hey, ooh
I'm a renegade rebel with my pedal to the floor
Hey hey, ooh
Them boys don't know I ain't in Kansas anymore

Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Hell nah, I ain't in Kansas anymore
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

Hey hey, ooh (hey hey, ooh)
I'm a renegade rebel with my pedal to the floor
Hey hey, ooh (hey hey, ooh)
Them boys don't know I ain't in Kansas anymore (come on)

Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah (oh)
Hell nah, I ain't in Kansas anymore (hey hey, ooh)
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah (Kansas anymore)

I heard sirens first time that I saw you smile
Yeah, mama couldn't tame a little wild child
Grew up right on the county line that you weren't afraid to cross
You're the kinda girl that could tear up a town
Hell up on a heart put your head in the clouds
Set the radio on the rodeo and baby, let's get lost
It's too late now to stop

It's like lightning on my lips every time you kiss me
Two seconds flat heart's zero to sixty
Carry me away like the Mississippi rolls
Gold sunset is my silver lining
Bouncing off your eyes like a couple diamonds
Levis jeans on the bench seat sliding close
Hotter than a no AC all summer
Girl, you stole my heart
Steal my thunder

Rolling twenty-one with an ace and a queen
35's hitting full head of steam
Shotgun rider with her hair in the breeze
Lord knows, nobody's looking at me
(If you know what I mean)

It's like lightning on my lips every time you kiss me
Two seconds flat heart's zero to sixty
Carry me away like the Mississippi rolls
Gold sunset is my silver lining
Bouncing off her eyes like a couple diamonds
Levis jeans on the bench seat sliding close
Hotter than a no AC all summer
Girl, you stole my heart
So steal my thunder, yeah
Steal my thunder

Rain, rain come today
Tell the sunshine to take a break
Gray sky's blowing in from the north
Whatcha say we go ahead and lock the doors?
Rain, rain come today
Tell the sunshine to take a break
You and me together is a perfect storm
So baby, let it pour

'Cause it's like lightning on my lips every time you kiss me
Two seconds flat heart's zero to sixty
Carry me away like the Mississippi rolls
Gold sunset is my silver lining
Bouncing off your eyes like a couple diamonds
Levis jeans on the bench seat sliding close
Hotter than a no AC all summer
Girl, you stole my heart
Steal my thunder
So steal my thunder

Well, she came down the stairs, she was wearing jeans and boots
Singing something George Strait outta 1992
When she opened up the fridge and reached around the wine
Tossed a cold one to me, I guess it's Miller time
She said, "Take me somewhere we can get the truck muddy"
Good God almighty, my baby's feeling country

I'm in till she calls it a night
She's got a neon green dance-with-me look in her eyes
She's twirling in her Tecovas, her Wranglers better hold on tight
Watch out Tennessee, she's drinking Kentucky
Good God almighty, my baby's feeling country

We ain't honky-tonk since I don't even know
When she's looking that way, you just say it, let's go
So we found a little hole-in-the-wall kinda joint
The band was just starting and I said, "Here you go boys"
Tossed a twenty in the jar, well, there goes my money
You know what to play, my baby's feeling country

I'm in till she calls it a night
She's got a neon green dance-with-me look in her eyes
She's twirling in her Tecovas, her Wranglers better hold on tight
Watch out Tennessee, she's drinking Kentucky
Good God almighty, my baby's feeling country

She only gets like this
Once in a full blue moon
And I don't wanna miss
One second of her honky-tonk attitude

Yeah, I'm in till she calls it a night
She's got a neon green, dance-with-me look in her eyes, that's right
She's twirling in her Tecovas, her Wranglers better hold on tight
Watch out Tennessee, she's drinking Kentucky
Good God almighty, my baby's feeling country
Good God almighty, my baby's feeling country

I've always been a gambler since the day I learned to crawl
Ain't afraid to bet on myself, ain't afraid to risk it all
I've learned some hardy wisdom, had to dig out of a ditch
Ain't the money in one's pocket that makes a man so rich

Some draw diamonds, some draw hearts
Some draw aces right from the start
Some have bad luck that follows a man
But I make my own luck and play my hand
I wouldn't trade with anyone else
Just live this life with the cards I've been dealt
The cards I've been dealt

Love's always a wildcard
A joker in the night
Yeah, the queen's a quiet killer
If you don't play her right
And I didn't play her right

Some draw diamonds, some draw hearts
Some draw aces right from the start
Some have bad luck that follows a man
But I make my own luck and play my hand
I wouldn't trade with anyone else
Just live this life with the cards I've been dealt
The cards I've been dealt
Some draw diamonds, some draw hearts
Some draw aces right from the start
Some have bad luck that follows a man
But I make my own luck and play my hand
I wouldn't trade with anyone else
Just live this life with the cards I've been dealt
The cards I've been dealt

I left my boots out by the door like I always do
Same stack of magazines by the the kitchen sink, it's nothin' new
Same view out my bedroom window
Same whistle every time the wind blows
Came back a different me, but it's good to see the same old you

I packed my bags like a bat outta hell
Said, "I'm all good all by myself"
Well, here I am again
It's been too long, old friend
If floors could cry and walls could talk
I hope they'd say, "It ain't your fault"
Standin' on your front porch, I can see
I left you, but you never left me

I bet you knew that I'd be back the day you watched me go
Now here you are all open-arms though I told you so
Cross-stitched pillows sayin' "home sweet home"
Ain't moved an inch since I've been gone
You kept these parts of me I haven't seen in so long

I packed my bags like a bat outta hell
Said, "I'm all good all by myself"
Well, here I am again
It's been too long, old friend
If floors could cry and walls could talk
I hope they'd say, "It ain't your fault"
Standin' on your front porch, I can see
I left you, but you never left me
You never left me

When I packed my bags like a bat outta hell
Said, "I'm all good all by myself"
Here I am again
These floors cried and these walls talked
Wanderin' far don't mean you're lost
Bein' back, it's all so bittersweet
I left you, but you never left me
You never left me

Came back a different me, but it's good to see the same old you

I've been dreamin', I've been drivin'
Tryin' to stay between the lines of
Who I am and who I used to be
I've been livin', I've been losin'
Walkin' miles in different shoes and
Findin' out I can't run from me

And if I ever get a little too far
I remember where I left my heart

Can't take the home out of Oklahoma
It's where my soul was born to be (home)
No matter where I'm goin', I'm a wild wind blowin'
Just a-rollin' like a tumbleweed
Can't take the home out of Oklahoma
So you can't take it out of me

The sky is cryin', mama's callin'
Paint is peelin', grass is tall and
I'm still feeling like I don't belong
Water tower, graffiti faded
Am I older or just jaded?
Everything and nothing changed at all

Can't take the home out of Oklahoma (home)
It's where my soul was born to be (home)
No matter where I'm goin', I'm a wild wind blowin'
Just a-rollin' like a tumbleweed
Can't take the home out of Oklahoma
So you can't take it out of me

And if I ever get a little too far
I remember where I left my heart

Can't take the home out of Oklahoma (home)
It's where my soul was born to be (home)
And no matter where I'm goin', I'm a wild wind blowin'
Just a-rollin' like a tumbleweed
Can't take the home out of Oklahoma
So you can't take it out of me (home)
Can't take it out of me (home)

Is this as bad as it gets or is it gonna get better?
Is this some kind of test, or will it be like this forever?
'Cause I ain't ever see a cloud this dark
And I ain't ever been down this far
Is this as bad as it gets or is it gonna get better?

I know it ain't gonna be no easy ride
And what doesn't kills you makes you stronger
But I'm running out of places I can hide
And everyday it's like the nights get longer
When I close my eyes, yeah, the waves get high
And the flames get hotter
So I'm asking myself 'cause I can't tell
If this is hell or just high water?

Is the tide gonna turn or will it keep on rising?
Is it all gonna burn out and strike like lightning?
'Cause I'm fighting and I'm just
Hangin' on to any thread of hope
Wonderin' if I should just let go
'Cause it's killin' me to just keep on climbin'
Lookin' for a silver lining

I know it ain't gonna be no easy ride
And what doesn't kills you makes you stronger
But I'm running out of places I can hide
And everyday it's like the nights get longer
When I close my eyes, yeah, the waves get high
And the flames get hotter
So I'm asking myself 'cause I can't tell
If this is hell or just high water?

Ohh-oh-ohh, will it ever be over?
Ohh-oh-ohh, am I two steps back, or one step closer

I know it ain't gonna be no easy ride
And what doesn't kills you makes you stronger
But I'm running out of places I can hide
And everyday it's like the nights get longer
When I close my eyes, yeah, the waves get high
And the flames get hotter
But I'm tellin' myself 'cause I know damn well
That this ain't hell
It's just high water
High water
It's just high water

I'm just an underthinkin', overusin', tall drinkin', short fusin'
Gettin' in my own way
I'm just a blood-stained, folded hands
Throwin' back the milligrams
I can't find the breaks
I'm hidin' from the sun
Devil ridin' shotgun
God knows I'ma crash and burn

'Cause that highway to hell is the road I'm on
I need to turn around before I'm too far gone
If I'm ever gonna make it on them streets of gold
I gotta quit livin' on a dead end road

I'm a red-linin', low-lifein', anything but law abidin'
Feels too good to quit
I'm runnin' off the edge, they say I'm just a wreck
Diggin' me deeper than six

'Cause that highway to hell is the road I'm on
I need to turn around before I'm too far gone
If I'm ever gonna make it on them streets of gold
I gotta quit livin' on a dead end road

I'm gonna die livin' on a dead end road
I'm gonna die livin' on a dead end road
I'm gonna die livin' on a dead end road
Die livin' on a dead end road

'Cause that highway to hell is the road I'm on
I need to turn around before I'm too far gone
If I'm ever gonna make it on them streets of gold
I gotta quit livin' on a dead end road

If I'm ever gonna make it on them streets of gold
I gotta quit livin' on a dead end road

Oh, yeah
Come on

Like blue jeans and a band on a T-shirt
Cold beer and a song through the speakers
Some things just never go out of style, ah yeah
Like a porch swing and a Sunday morning
Sweet tea and a peach picked from Georgia
Some things just never get old with time

Just like the way she talks, so sweet and so clear
Oh, it's music to my ears

That girl, she's a sweet home Alabama
She could paint me a Birmingham, hot damn
If I could make it to Cheyenne or Amarillo by morning
Man, she feels like a woman
Like I heard her on the radio
Driving down that red dirt road
Oh, I can't get her out of my head, know I gotta have it
That girl, that girl is a country classic
Mmm yeah, that girl is a country classic

Like first dates and a kiss in a truck bed
Up late stealing liquor from the cabinet
8-tracks, home team on a ball cap
She ain't a throwback

That girl, she's a sweet home Alabama
She could paint me a Birmingham, hot damn
If I could make it to Cheyenne or Amarillo by morning
Man, she feels like a woman
Like I heard her on the radio
Driving down that red dirt road
Oh, I can't get her out of my head, know I gotta have it
That girl, that girl is a country classic
Yeah, yeah, she's a country classic

Just like the way she talks so sweet and so clear
Oh, it's music to my ears

That girl, she's a sweet home Alabama
She could paint me a Birmingham, hot damn
If I could make it to Cheyenne or Amarillo by morning
Man, she feels like a woman
Like I heard her on the radio
Driving down that red dirt road
Oh, I can't get her out of my head, know I gotta have it
That girl, that girl is a country classic
Mmm yeah, yeah, she's a country classic

Forty miles down the road where the dead wind blows
There ain't a sight of the streets
Through the fields in the south
You were no-way bound, livin' wild and free
I was lost, now I'm caught in a feelin'
My blue-eyed American dream
Never felt more at ease
Somehow the dust and the breeze takes a hold of me

Oh, I would stop this whole world for hours
But I don't know how
Oh, I swear this whole world could be ours
Keep your head in the clouds

I'll keep my eyes on the road turn up the radio
Wind in our hair screamin', "Don't you dare look back"
This fear is on my mind ridin' the borderline
Holdin' on tight until we crash
We're just some wild hearts chasin' somethin' that could tear us apart

Highway take us away
Far from our mistakes, under heartland skies
Towards the woods in the west
They say there's no time left
So, let's live for tonight

Oh, I would stop this whole world for hours
But I don't know how
Oh, I swear this whole world could be ours
Keep your head in the clouds

I'll keep my eyes on the road turn up the radio
Wind in our hair screamin', "Don't you dare look back"
This fear is on my mind ridin' the borderline
Holdin' on tight until we crash
We're just some wild hearts
Chasin' somethin' that could tear us apart

We're just some wild hearts
Chasin' something that could tear us apart

Up in your nephew's room, playing on his cousin's guitar
I wrote a song for you

You have done drove off with everything I need
My box and my tumbleweed

I picked it up on the way to Flagstaff years ago
I was hanging on to everything you had the grace to show

You were young and you were hungry
Lord knows I was hungry too
We were both flat-out starving
For something worthwhile to lose

Looking over the hill at the lights of your hometown
I wrote this song for you
Thinking of the way we met, a girl home from school
And a boy just passing through

I got a job as a cut man at a house just down the road
I had never been to town before and I didn't know a soul

I was young and I was hungry
Lord knows you were hungry too
We were both flat-out starving
For something worthwhile to lose
You were my bread and I was your honey
Up against the dark red wine
Trying to hold on to the lovely
Through the bitter of our times

Agate white wedding dress, turquoise on your ring
Upright bass and violin as you walk the aisle to me

I was young and I was hungry
Lord knows you were hungry too
We were both flat-out starving
For something worthwhile to lose
You were my bread and I was your honey
Up against the dark red wine
Trying to hold on to the lovely
Through the bitter of our times

Yeah, I've been thinking 'bout it for about a couple minutes
How you been gone for a couple months and what you're missing
I know the city's kinda pretty but it ain't what you're used to (that's true)
I bet you're posting pictures and checking if I'm looking
Ain't got the time, there's a line with a bass I'm hooking
And come tomorrow, there's a whole buncha nothing that I gotta do (how 'bout you?)

Yeah, I hope that you're sitting in a high rise apartment
Looking down at everything that you ever wanted
I'll be fine, sipping a Yellow Jacket on an old port on Main (but that's just me)
You been looking for grass that grows up greener
But if you ask me, there ain't nothing sweeter
Than a Carolina sky, kissing dirt, flirting with a sunset
I'd wish you the best but you already had it
(You already had it)

You had the golden ticket, then you went off and ripped it
You had a man who was all in on you and country living
I hope you're liking looking at the trees growing through the concrete (not me)

Yeah, I hope that you're sitting in a high rise apartment
Looking down at everything that you ever wanted
I'll be fine, sipping a Yellow Jacket on an old port on Main (but that's just me)
You been looking for grass that grows up greener
But if you ask me, there ain't nothing sweeter
Than a Carolina sky, kissing dirt, flirting with a sunset
I'd wish you the best but you already had it
But you already had it

Already had your best song and your best dance
You had the best damn thing you could ever have
Now it's gone and I know you're gonna want it
But that's too bad 'cause you already had it

Yeah, I hope that you're sitting in a high rise apartment
Looking down at everything that you ever wanted
I'll be fine sipping a Yellow Jacket on an old (?) (but that's just me)
You been looking for grass that grows up greener
But if you ask me, there ain't nothing sweeter
Than a Carolina sky, kissing dirt, flirting with a sunset
I'd wish you the best but you already had it

(I'd wish you the best but you already had it)
(I'd wish you the best but you already had it)

Wear her on my neck
Keep her close to my chest like home
She lucky like a bet
She won't let me forget where I'm from
People come and go
She rode even through the backroads on my worst night
She won't ever leave me 'lone

She's my Chrome Cowgirl
She's my Chrome Cowgirl
The way she fit in my hands
Forever young and made of lightnin'
She's my Chrome Cowgirl

Father died in Houston
Could have sworn my heart was closed
Now there ain't no secrets
She don't have the key to know
She isn't one to fight
She doesn't roll her eye
When I'm out all night, doesn't lose her mind

She's my Chrome Cowgirl
She's my Chrome Cowgirl
The way she fit in my hands
Forever young and made of lightnin'
She's my Chrome Cowgirl

She's my Chrome
She's my Chrome Cowgirl
She's my Chrome
She's my Chrome Cowgirl

One, two, one, two, three

How could something so delicate also be dangerous?
Kind of afraid of it, darling, believe me
I'm just praying you keep me
And you look like an angel there, you and your braided hair
Oh, it's just so unfair, you'll never see
You've got a hold on me

And it feels like suicide, lookin' into your eyes
I get so terrified that I'm gonna lose you
And I'll die if I do

It's a death wish, love
Take my heart, I'll let you spill my blood
Cut me down again
I love you, and I'll love you to death
On and on, and only you can kill me now
I'll scream your name until my lungs give out
Pull me down again
I love you, and I'll love you to death
Love you for as long as I get

The way that you make me laugh
Nobody else does that
You've got the upper hand
And if you squeeze, I would fall to my knees

And I'll ask the stars at night how I could slow the time
God, I'm so terrified that I'm gonna lose you
And I'll die if I do

It's a death wish, love
Take my heart, I'll let you spill my blood
Cut me down again
I love you, and I'll love you to death
On and on, and only you can kill me now
I'll scream your name until my lungs give out
Pull me down again
I love you, and I'll love you to death
I'll love you for as long as I get

(Ooh)
Oh, I'm gonna love you to death
(Ooh)
Oh, I'm gonna run 'til I wreck
(Ooh)
Go until there's none of me left
(Ooh)
No, there's nothing of me left
(Ooh)
Oh, I'm gonna love you to death
(Ooh)
Oh, I'm gonna run 'til I wreck
(Ooh)
Go until there's nothing left
(Ooh)

It's a death wish, love
Take my heart, I'll let you spill my blood
Cut me down again
I love you, and I'll love you to death
On and on, and only you can kill me now
I'll scream your name until my lungs give out
Pull me down again
I love you, and I'll love you to death
Love you for as long as I get

Oh, as long as I get

[Shania Twain & BRELAND]
But my boots don't
Oh, yeah

[BRELAND & Shania Twain]
Some hearts get bitter (Bitter), some go numb (Numb)
Some go to bed and they wake up drunk (Whoo)
Some get lonely and call their exes up (Brr-brr, not me)
Some hearts get even (Awe), some turn cold (Brr)
Some hold on and they never let go (Go)
Some skip town like a traveling rodeo
But that ain't me, I don't do pity parties

[BRELAND & Shania Twain, BRELAND]
My heart knows that you're gone, baby
But my boots don't
I know that you've done me wrong, baby
But my boots don't
Thеy're gonna dance all night 'til evеrything's alright
My heart knows that you're gone, baby (Oh)
But my boots don't

[BRELAND]
My boots, boots, boots, boots
My boots, boots, boots, boots

[Shania Twain & BRELAND]
I love rockin' out, talkin' 'bout the weekend
Workin' all week 'til I get to see them
My friends, we look for the floor for sure (Sure)
Ready, steady, kickin' down the door
Heel, toe, heel, toe
Heal my heart, boots, ain't that what you're made for?

[BRELAND & Shania Twain, BRELAND, Shania Twain]
My heart knows that you're gone, baby (Oh)
But my boots don't (Boots don't)
I know that you've done me wrong, baby (So wrong)
But my boots don't
They're gonna dance all night 'til everything's alright
My heart knows that you're gone, baby
(But my boots don't)

[Shania Twain & BRELAND]
I might forget you in my cowgirls
Let loose in my Lucchese's
Ditch the blues in my blue suedes
'Til I ain't thinking 'bout you baby, oh

[BRELAND & Shania Twain, Shania Twain, BRELAND]
My heart knows that you're gone, baby (My heart knows)
But my boots don't
I know that you've done me wrong, baby (Baby, baby)
But my boots don't (Oh)
They're gonna dance all night (All night, all night) 'til everything's alright (It's gonna be alright)
My heart knows that you're gone, baby
My heart knows, but my boots don't

Well, you look just like an angel who walks on Heaven's floors
And I hear your words deeper than I ever heard before
Your green eyes calling me back home
You look just like an angel who walks on Heaven's floors

And well, I swear you're in the sunrise, I swear you're in the moon
I've seen a sky full of stars and I swear you're in those too
You're a sight to wonder, something I can't lose
I swear you're in the sunrise, I swear you're in the moon

So hear me out
'Cause I know, I know the wind's something fierce
But I'm something you can hold now
Do you, do you feel the same?

'Cause I wanna, I wanna know if your heart is racing too
Mine's a mile a minute and I'm loving every tune
You give me something that I've never had before
Wilder than the wind and stronger than a storm

Well, it's nothing in my life that I've ever known before
Like a thread left alone and a splinter in the door
The more I ignore the more I swear it grows
There's nothing in my life that I've ever known before

Yeah, I know
'Cause I know, I know the wind's something fierce
But I'm something you can hold now
Do you, do you feel the same?

'Cause I wanna, I wanna know if your heart is racing too
Mine's a mile a minute and I'm loving every tune
You give me something that I've never had before
Wilder than the wind and stronger than a storm
Stronger than a storm

So hear me out
'Cause I know, I know the wind's something fierce
But I'm something you can hold
Do you, do you feel the same
'Cause I wanna, oh, I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know
Oh, I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know right now
Oh, I need to know, need to know, need to know
Oh, I need to know, need to know, need to know

I need to know if your heart is racing too
Mine's a mile a minute and I'm loving every tune
You give me something that I've never had before
Wilder than the wind and stronger than a storm
Wilder than the wind and stronger than a storm
Stronger than a storm
(Yeah)

I'm on the way down
Free fall to judgment day
I'm losing faith now
I spent all my saving grace
There's a dead reckoning for me
Everything's tremblin' beneath
I'm on the way down
But I'm holdin' the reigns

Oh, I'm chasing the wind
Free like a mustang, born again
Oh, I may never win
But I feel it coming, I'm catching up
Oh, I'm chasing the wind
I hear the thunder rollin' in
Oh, I may never win
But I feel it coming, I'm catching up now
I feel it coming, I'm catching up now

Hell on the highway
Only the road staring back at me
Doing it my way
Holding the curses in my teeth
I see fire, I see rain
There's a tempest in my brain
Hell on the highway
No, there ain't no chains on me

Oh, I'm chasing the wind
Free like a mustang, born again
Oh, I may never win
But I feel it coming, I'm catching up
Oh, I'm chasing the wind
I hear the thunder rollin' in
Oh, I may never win
But I feel it coming, I'm catching up now
I feel it coming, I'm catching up now

I'm chasing the wind
Free like a mustang, born again
Oh, I may never win
But I feel it coming, I'm catching up
Oh, I'm chasing the wind
I hear the thunder rollin' in
Oh, I may never win
But I feel it coming, I'm catching up now
I'm catching up now
I'm catching up now

Never really was one for relationships
I let love sail away
Always been the first one callin' it quits
Cowboys never stay
All this ramblin' and wanderin' is all that I know
But you make me feel right at home

You gave this lonely life some meaning
Got this non-believer believin'
Oh, when my blind-folded heart is in the darkest of dark
My soul is searchin' to see
You leave a light on for me
You leave a light on for me

Ain't it crazy baby in a flip of a switch
You get me out of my head
And when the shadows are coming in quick
You threw 'em right off the edge
Oh, I still get lost, yeah, but I don't get gone
'Cause you always lead me back home

You gave this lonely life some meaning
Got this non-believer believin'
Oh, when my blind-folded heart is in the darkest of dark
My soul is searchin' to see
You leave a light on for me
You leave a light on for me
You leave a light on

You gave this lonely life some meaning
Got this non-believer believin'
Oh, when my blind-folded heart is in the darkest of dark
My soul is searchin' to see
You leave a light on for me
You leave a light on for me
You leave a light on

The clouds start caving in and these the walls are paper-thin
Counting all my sins like it's judgment day
Locked in a household war
Battleground's the living room floor, I'm not sure what I'm fighting for
But I'm tired of trying to be who you need me to be

Never thought that it would end this way
Now we're running out of things to say
Let the rain come pouring down
I'm not afraid to drown
Just hope you make it out before I do

Oh, before I do
Oh, before I do
Oh, before I do

I know you've grown quite used to flying
By the time that the sun does rise you're shaking something violent
And all the folks here in this town go around staying quiet
Can't they hear the thunder in your voice
Don't they know you never had a choice

Never thought that it would end this way
Now we're running out of things to say
Let the rain come pouring down
I'm not afraid to drown
Just hope you make it out before I do

Before I do
Before I do
Oh, before I do

Never thought that it would end this way
Now we're running out of words to say
Let the rain come pouring down
I'm not afraid to drown
Just hope you make it out before I do

Before I do
Before I do
Oh, before I do

I left home at twenty three
I ran the roads down to OKC
Never let nothin' ever slow me down
Never been afraid to get knocked around

Mama taught me how to pray
And daddy worked everyday
I'd roll this town on a cloud of dust
If I ever get the chance to leave
But Caddo County has got a hold on me

I ain't a regular dude afraid of being alone
Always chasin' trouble like a dog to a bone
If you come around barkin' be ready to bite
Never been known to ever run from a fight

My mama taught me how to pray
And daddy told me watch what I say
But life got in the way
I'd roll this town on a cloud of dust
If I ever get the chance to leave
But Caddo County has got a hold on me

I'd roll this town on a cloud of dust
If I ever get the chance to leave
But Caddo County has got a hold on me
I'd roll this town on a cloud of dust
If I ever get the chance to leave
But Caddo County has got a hold on me

Blackberry wine on a Saturday night
Said a spoonful of sugar gonna make ya feel fine
That woman, she drives me outta my mind
With blackberry wine on a Saturday night, yeah

She got long tan legs, her feet on the dash
Her eyes on mine and her hand in my lap
She said, "Stop goin' slow, I wanna go fast"
Put the hammer down and hit the gas

And I say, "Oh, where we goin', mama?"
She says, "I don't care, anywhere but here"
I say, "Oh, don't ya stop now, woman"
Put the pedal to the metal, I'll shift the gears
Put the pedal to the metal, I'll shift the gears, woo

Well, it's gettin' late, but she don't wanna go home
So we pull it over to the side of the road
Back seats rockin' and we're turnin' it on
It's gettin' real late, but she don't wanna go home

And I say, "Oh, where we goin', mama?"
She says, "I don't care, anywhere but here"
I say, "Oh, don't ya stop now, woman"
Put the pedal to the metal, I'll shift the gears
Put the pedal to the metal, I'll shift the gears, ow

Blue lights flashing in the back windshield
Buckle up, baby, we ain't stopping here
Kickin' up dust, ain't gettin' busted
Blue and red lights can't stop this lovin'

And I say, "Oh, where we goin', mama?"
She says, "I don't care, anywhere but here"
I say, "Oh, don't ya stop now, woman"
Put the pedal to the metal, I'll shift the gears
Put the pedal to the metal, I'll shift the gears

Blackberry wine on a Saturday night
Blackberry wine got me feelin' alright
Blackberry wine get me outta my mind
With blackberry wine on a Saturday night

Grab your gloss, grab his keys
Grab the Luccheses
Now grab the dog, yeah, be stealth
Grab the gas can off that shelf
Burning rubber, burning grass
Kiss these lips or kiss this ass
Won't take his eyes off you in those Daisy Dukes (yeah, yeah)

Easy, got ya sippin' my sweet tea
Too easy, boys are too easy

Go and get your manicure for something that a man can't cure
French tip, french kiss

Is it me or is your wallet missin'?
On my line, you're hooked I'm fishin'
Drop it down, flippin' twistin'
Class in session, I just dismissed him

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bad bee

Easy, got ya sippin' my sweet tea
Too easy, boys are too easy
Too easy, boys are too easy

Too easy, boys are too easy

Let that music speak to you
You don't have to lose it

Baby, I never loved you
But I damn sure meant to
The hobble on my heart
Never been that strong

I'm loyal to the leaving
Rambling drifter dreamin'
The stompin' and the screamin'
When a crowd turn on

Now truth be told
I'm better left alone
Cowboys like to sing them lonely songs
With a two-step dance
Fall and don't forget
To let go of the rope I tangled up again
Here we go again

And now, I'll throw me a new loop
There'd be a few that slip through
But hey now, what do you do?
You don't dally 'em all

Oh, I like 'em better
Cold as a day in December
Like the one out in Denver
Never answering my call

Now, truth be told
I'm better left alone
Cowboys like to sing them lonely songs
With a two-step dance
Fall and don't forget
To let go of the rope I tangled up again

And never hangin' 'round too long
And it's hard to love a man who's always gone

Now, truth be told
I'm better left alone
Cowboys like to sing them lonely songs
With a two-step dance
Fall and don't forget
To let go of the rope I tangled up again

Now, let go of the rope I tangled up again
Here we go again

Hot on the trail of an angel from hell
Death knockin' at the door, panic startin' to swell
Pressure risin' as sirens sound
Hard to hear your prayers while the tempest howls

And her rage roars 'round
As her shame pours out
The pain and fear up in the air
Till her reign touchdown

Warnings breakin', mercy bends
Beatin' down, batterin', bludgeonin'
Heaven's waitin', sirens sound
All to your feet, deep roots unground

While her rage roars 'round
As her shame pours out
The pain and fear up in the air
Till her reign touchdown
Rainin' tears, pain and fear
When her reign touchdown

When her reign touchdown
When her reign touchdown

Open the door, I'm driving you home
Maybe we'll talk, maybe we won't
Not gonna leave you out in the cold
You drivin off, with me on the hood
I couldn't have done that, I guess that you could
Maybe I hold on more than I should

Maybe you're too far gone
Hurt more than anything that I'm wrong
I couldn't live with myself leaving you all alone
So I'm driving you home

We were so close but we were just kids
I never knew the things that you did
Just growing up fast and living with it
I followed you wherever you went
But I can't go down that road again
Just 'cause you said I was your only friend

Maybe you're too far gone
Hurt more than anything that I'm wrong
I couldn't live with myself leaving you all alone
I'm driving you home
So I'm driving you home

Maybe you're too far gone
Hurt more than anything that I'm wrong
I couldn't live with myself leaving you all alone
I won't leave you here all alone
So I'm driving you home

[Wilderado & Ken Pomeroy]
Let me ride on the wall of death one more time
Let me ride on the wall of death one more time
You can waste your time on the other rides
This is the nearest to being alive
Oh let me take my chances on the wall of death

[Ken Pomeroy]
You can go with the crazy people in the crooked house
You can fly away on the rocket or spin in the mouse
The tunnel of love might amuse you
And Noah's ark might confuse you
But let me take my chances on the wall of death

[Wilderado & Ken Pomeroy]
On the wall of death
All the world is far from me
On the wall of death
It's the nearest to being free

[Wilderado & Ken Pomeroy]
Oh, you're going nowhere when you ride on the carousel
And maybe you're strong, but what's the good of ringing a bell?
The switchback will make you crazy
Beware of the bearded lady
Oh, let me take my chances on the wall of death

An old cowboy went riding out
One dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested
As he went along his way

When all at once a mighty herd
Of red eyed cows he saw
Plowin' through the ragged skies
And up the cloudy draw

Their brands were still on fire
And their hooves were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiny
And their hot breath he could feel

A bolt of fear went through him
As they thundered through the sky
For he saw the riders coming hard
And he heard their mournful cry

Yippie-yi-yay
Yippie-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
He's riding hard to catch that herd
But he ain't caught 'em yet

'Cause they've got to ride forever
On that range up in the sky
On the horses snorting fire
As they ride on, hear their cry

As the riders loped on by him
He heard one call his name
If you wanna save your soul from hell a-riding on our range
Then cowboy, change your ways today
Or with us you will ride
Trying to catch the devil's herd
Across these endless skies

Yippie-yi-yay
Yippie-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky

Yippie-yi-yay
Yippie-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
