Drifting

I left my favorite cassette in the escape car I'll never hear those songs again It made me think of all the many things I've sacrificed Oh, mama, where do I begin? When I broke bad I never knew 'bout all this trouble I would have You should not romanticize this outlaw life When the scars have been shown and the tales have been told I'm telling you something's missing Don't make no excuse to sing the blues Calculating the cost and the things that you lost You'll realize love's gone missing Don't go drifting I'm losing count when recalling all that I regret How many missteps are enough? Who of the few I call friends will be by my side When, without recourse, life gets tough? When I broke bad I never knew 'bout all this trouble I would have You should not romanticize this outlaw life When the scars have been shown and the tales have been told I'm telling you something's missing Don't make no excuse to sing the blues Calculating the cost and the things that you lost You'll realize love's gone missing Don't go drifting You should not romanticize (oh yeah) this outlaw life When the scars have been shown and the tales have been told I'm telling you something's missing Don't make no excuse to sing the blues Calculating the cost and the things that you lost You'll realize love's gone missing Oh no. Oh no, no, no Don't go drifting Don't go drifting Don't go drifting
