Earle Steve Copperhead Road 2008

she says she?s got a new man, son, it?s been a long, long time She left me standin? by the highway with the rain runnin? through my shoes With the sittin? by the road

About the time that Daddy left to fight the big war I saw my first pistol in the general store In the general store, when I was thirteen Thought it

I've always heard that love is blind But I know that there's another kind Shines like a beacon in the night And holds up in the morning light Cause

Since I first saw you I've been thinkin' about you And now I'm out here on the highway goin' crazy without you I can't help but want you girl, you'

Once upon a time in a far off land Wise men saw a sign and set out aross the sand Songs of praise to sing, they travelled day and night Precious gifts

We've all got wheels to take ourselves away We've got telephones to say what we can't say We've all got higher and higher every day Come on, wheels

I'm an American, boys, and I've come a long way I was born and bred in the USA So listen up close, I've get something to say Boys, I'm buying this

'm back over there I learned a thing or two from ol' Charlie don't you know You better stay away from Copperhead Road Copperhead Road Copperhead Road Copperhead Road

I dont care what you do to me I dont care what you do to me I dont care what you do to me But wont you let my little sister be Now you can tie me up
