That mornin' sun made its way
|
Through the windshield of my Chevrolet
|
Whiskey eyes and ashtray breath
|
On a chert rock gravel road
|
|
What the hell did I do last night?
|
That's the story of my life,
|
Like tryin' to remember words
|
To a song nobody wrote
|
|
And it's sad and it's long
|
And can't nobody sing along
|
It's a south bound train
|
It's a whistle in the wind
|
Ain't no one there to care where I've been
|
I'm hummin' on that lonesome song again
|
|
I took a trip across the country from Montgomery
|
Discovered I'd been wrong for so long
|
I thought it was the fame and the glory and the money
|
But all I've got to show is a damn song
|
|
And it's sad and it's long
|
And can't nobody sing along
|
It's a south bound train
|
It's a whistle in the wind
|
There's no one there to sing to in the end
|
I'm hummin' on that lonesome song again
|
|
And it's sad and it's long
|
And can't nobody sing along
|
It's a south bound train
|
It's a whistle in the wind
|
Ain't no one there to care where I've been
|
I'm hummin' on that lonesome song again
|
|
The mornin' sun made its way
|
Through the windshield of my Chevrolet
|
Whiskey eyes and ashtray breath
|
On a chert rock gravel road...
