lyrics

Those songs out of a bottle
They were my only hope
But I’ll be damned if I didn’t drink ‘em down to the last note
Falling off a barstool was all I ever did
I never gave a damn
Just never had a damn to give

Another boozy night going nowhere
I hit the gas but I was moving slow
Something in the road or something in the air
Made me feel it was time to go
Pick me up and lead me down the long road to Barstow

Sunrise in my rearview
A bass drum in my head
I had a heart full of sorrow and a right foot full of lead
A radiator leaking
A crack in the grill
It was another night of drinking
And mixing in, mixing in the pills

I don’t remember too much after midnight
But I heard it like an echo in my soul
I couldn’t turn around
I couldn’t face the lie
I couldn’t suffer what I didn’t know
Pick me up and lead me down the long road to Barstow

Barely 10 am
The Death Valley Motor Inn
I parked around the back before I stumbled in
To my 30 dollar room
I put the smoke to the fire
Peeling back the curtains I saw the blood
The blood on the tires

Another boozy night going nowhere
I hit the gas but I was moving slow
I feel it in my bones
They’re gonna find me, Lord
And send me to the devil down below
Pick me up and lead me down the road
Pick me up and lead me down the road
I’m hidin’ out driving down the long road to Barstow

Down the long road to Barstow
Down the long road to Barstow
Down the long road to Barstow
