| Well I turned and shut my eyes
|
| As you let the gravel fly
|
| When I looked up you had cleared the driveway
|
| You and your big cloud of dust
|
| All your chrome and all your rust
|
| Beggin' to lay scattered on the highway
|
| Well I have not forgotten when we may as well be kin
|
| Raising hell from here to Bryan County
|
| Wishing I could let you in
|
| Give you shelter from the wind
|
| But that hurricane ain’t coming down around me
|
| Oh well you can curse your fiddle till it breaks down at the binding
|
| Curse your locomotive off the rail
|
| And all that trouble you’ve been looking for is easy in the finding
|
| Well the devil’s into fine detail
|
| Well I nearly took your lead
|
| With your pistol and your speed
|
| Shoot to kill and plan to be forgiven
|
| But in between the mill
|
| And whatever deer I kill
|
| Truth be told I barely make a living
|
| Oh well you can curse your fiddle till it breaks down at the binding
|
| Curse your locomotive off the rail
|
| And all that trouble you’ve been looking for is easy in the finding
|
| Well the devil’s into fine detail
|
| And you’re somewhere in the winding stair
|
| Thinking you still got a trick or two
|
| And you’re planning out your fight in the lantern light
|
| But I don’t see this going well for you
|
| No I don’t see this going well for you
|
| Well the sheriff came last night
|
| Is everything alright?
|
| Ask for any help that I can give
|
| No we had a falling out
|
| Well then what’s this all about
|
| They said the man who’s shot is gonna live
|
| Oh well you can curse your fiddle till it breaks down at the binding
|
| Curse your locomotive off the rail
|
| And all that trouble you’ve been looking for is easy in the finding
|
| Well the devil’s into fine detail
|
| Well the devil’s into fine detail |
