joe devito - 95 north lyrics

[verse]
well my sweet aunt said she’d leave me
for that southern seed
to build herself a new life in those
florida keys
and i was sittin’ with my elbow dug in
to my knees
at the edge of the bed
with a knife blood red

[chorus]
aw 95 north
won’t you save my soul
and if you get it back to me
i’ll pay you somethin bold
cause i got bad remains
in the car i ride
never had enough brain
enough brain to cure my high

[verse}
and i got one thousand miles
in this dirty room
and it’s shining blue
and the engine’s moaning through
and in my side is mother mary scrеamin’
in my ear
and cane is comin’ down
in a golden sphеre
[chorus]
aw 95 north
no i don’t wanna die
but my wipers can’t keep up with this
stormin’ sky
and i know too well
i got it comin’ to me
i’m just so tired of all that pain
that comes along with being free

[verse]
and i’m stranded in virginia
at a cheap motel
with a burden weighin’ down
into the depths of h+ll
and no they never told this yank about the
dirty south
where the family gets you first
before the law can find out

[chorus]
aw 95 north
won’t you keep me free
because it seems in my past
well it’s catchin’ up with me
oh and i know too well
i should’ve stayed alone
cause now i’m far from home
with only a bag full of bones
[verse]
and i was woken in the morning to a
knockin’ at my door
said there’s two mean lookin’ men waiting for you on that
first floor
so if you come down the stairs
when you change that lock
just meet ’em in the lobby
i says he’d really love to talk

[chorus]
aw 95 north
[?]
it seems this man downstairs is waiting with a
loaded gun
oh and i know too well
i been a bad bad man
but i do not pretend to die
all by another man’s hand

[verse}
and so i flew down the highway with a
voice in my head
that said there ain’t no fear in dying
when you are better off dead
and on my conscience had caught up to me
my mind was now so clear
and if it’s justice i’m deserving
well it won’t be justice that i fear
[chorus]
all 95 north
won’t you take my life
for i’ve been a bad man
for when i slayed my wife
and though i know i got a grave
that’s waiting for us up in maine
i highly doubt i’ll make it there
before [?]

[verse]
cause in my rear view mirror
is a rusted chevrolet
and it’s got men in every seat
and out of state plates
and they were tailing me for hours
though i tried to let them pass
for all my trials will be over
for once i’m run up outta gas

[chorus]
aw 95 north
hope i treated you well
it seems this truck will be behind me
at the fredericksburg sh+ll
and i got four bad men
that’d like to take my life
they each got two shotty guns
and i got nothing but a knife

[chorus]
aw 95 north
won’t you shake my hand
and if this rain ever stops
well i will be a better man
and i know too well
i got a heart to hold
and imma hold it near
and imma hold it dear
