loves gotta be real, not sentimental.
its gotta run deep and be strong, not ornamental.
its gotta be more than words and have good taste-
youre about to make a mistake, mom...
one i cant keep you from.
dont touch me now.
if it starts to rain,
ill stop in houston.
if the rain holds off,
ill go till memphis-
and stay a couple of days,
a couple of days.
and stay a couple of days.
if it starts to rain,
ill stop in houston.
if the rain holds off,
ill go till memphis-
and stay a couple of days,
a couple of days.
stay a couple of days...
taking the back way, not meeting their eyes-
angry with boots on, thats your boy.
moving to a whole new level.
but now ive got a whole new devil.
this morning im gonna lay my axe down.
if it starts to rain,
ill stop in houston.
if the rain holds off,
ill go till memphis-
and stay a couple of days,
a couple of days.
and stay a couple of days.
ima go down and meet my squaw.
