Lone Pine

Off work at ten
 Then off to a friends
 Any thing to keep from going home
 I've seen these streets my whole damn life
 Barely made it out alive
 Push the car to eighty on the backroads
 Stop by Willy's on a Monday night
 Always leave flying high as a kite
 And try to drive the way that the cops don't go
 Liza hits me up real late at night
 When we dated all we did was fight
 I guess she's feeling lonely
 And she wants me to know
 I wish someone told it'd be like this
 But no one could've told me it'd be like this
 When I was a boy
 I worried bout chores
 And tying my shoes tight
 To show up on time
 Try not to wine
 And get all my prayers right
 Now I'm always stressed out
 Running round'
 Looking for another town
 To saddle up and settle down
 I really miss my pops
 He used to be as strong as Fort Knox
 Had arms of steel and a heart of gold
 We took a drive up to lone pine
 That man could give some damn good advice
 He knew me better than whiskey knows ice
 And he told me so
 I wish he could've told me it'd be like this
 But no one could've told me it'd be like this
 When I was a boy
 I worried bout chores
 And tying my shoes tight
 To show up on time
 Try not to wine
 And get all my prayers right
 Now I'm always stressed out
 Running round'
 Looking for another town
 To saddle up and settle down
 I watched the stars collide
 I saw an old love die
 While new loves burn
 From the look in her eyes
 The fires turned to ice
 And the river run dry
 The river run dry
 I wish someone told it'd be like this
 But no one could've told me it'd be like this
 When I was a boy
 I worried bout chores
 And tying my shoes tight
 To show up on time
 Try not to wine
 And get all my prayers right
 Now I'm always stressed out
 Running round'
 Looking for another town
 To saddle up and settle down
