joe henry – king’s highway lyrics
i might just change my mind
sometimes you can never tell
where a story will unwind
how deep is the shallow ground
sometimes you would never guess
who’s all talk and who just might
find a way or lose themselves
on the king’s highway tonight
i am just like many more
who lie in bed, still and numb
waking up and i can see
just how dark it has become
who knows no better angels now
who knows none but earthly light
who is waiting for a stranger
on the king’s highway tonight
it wasn’t how i had it planned
when it finally came around
i took a man with my own hands
but i held him close when he went down
he hadn’t time to be afraid
his look was only of surprise
staring up from where he lay
on the king’s highway tonight
i took the little that he had
only as an afterthought
he wouldn’t have to feel so bad
to think i killed him just because
he was p-ssing through this town
only ’cause he looked about right
he stopped when i flagged him down
on the king’s highway tonight
i might just change my mind
sometimes you can never tell
