Rural Route |
I built a fire up on the hill; |
I sat in the woods and drank my fill |
Talked to God all night, took another shot at setting me right |
Then I walked down to the road, filled a beer can full of 22 holes |
Then I said goodbye, yeah I said goodbye |
I’d go back but I can’t go home, cause river is up & the road is closed |
& there ain’t no telephone… at my mothers' house |
& all the lights are out, down on the rural route |
There ain’t much of nothin' left, this place where I became myself |
Ghosts & memories, I’d walk on by but they’d follow me |
I’d seen plenty on down the road. |
Asked him if he’d seen my brother |
He just said no, well I guess I’d better go |
Repeat Chorus |
Instrumental |
I built a fire up on the hill; |
I sat in the woods and drank my fill |
Talked to God all night, took another shot at setting me right |
Then I’d just walk away, ain’t nothin' here I want to remember anyway |
Least not today |
Repeat Chorus * 2 |
