lyrics

We are driving westward cause we've run out of places to hide. Bullet in my shoulder and a woman by my side. We wouldn't be going to Memphis if I had anymore pride, but I am just a simple man and that's how I plan to die. I don't know if we're gonna freeze, I can't tell you if drunk heathens are gonna break all four of our knees. The money that we've made from this hasn't put my mind at ease. The pirates life is not the life for me. By now you've had enough coffee to turn your insides black, but you're still able to sleep in this boxcar, rattling up the tracks. We've got to learn to stop thinking about when we can go back. Pushing forward is easy when you've given up the slack. I don't know if we're gonna die, I can't tell you honestly if we'll make it out alive. The bullet picks its target, leaves the barrel then collides, and the dirt starts approaching on all sides. We are sleeping peacefully with the roots brushing our heads. If we never need no money then we wouldn't have ended up dead. Losing sight of the pale moonlight I swore that you had said, "We never needed no money, just a life to lead instead". I know that we're probably gonna rot, and in 20 years we'll be paved over when they put in a parking lot. Things could have been different if we stood behind and fought, at least that is the way that I've been taught.
