the hill country devil - kerr county dopesick blues lyrics

Loading...

it’s my fourth day awake
dallas is behind us, but i’ll pay for that mistake
and be swallowed by the shadow of the east
picture postcards on the dresser reflect the flashing from the street
as the hounds start a-catching up to me

in a cloak of sheets on the cold concrete
i tremble before defeat
and that golden script from my back pocket
ain’t worth a god d-mn thing
’cause the judge won’t grant me bail, what’s another month in jail
while you sleep well wrapped in someone else’s arms

no matter what i choose
i’m forced to pay my dues
and dream of you in the kerr county dopesick blues

it’s my fourth day awake
and the nights are getting longer yet i flinch when morning breaks
i wonder if you long for me at all
as i trace the cracking stone that’s stretching trails across these walls
and i hope that the whole d-mn thing will fall

and the sky will bruise in blinding hues
if god is good it’ll fall down too
and the world will turn as the idols burn
with steadfast follow through
but the ledger spells my name and that stone won’t ever break
so onward now through the never ending ache

no matter what i choose
i’m forced to pay my dues
and dream of you in the kerr county dopesick blues
