Can't Fool Your Own Blood

I think that momma's drinkin' again There's a sparkle in her eye And how I love to see her laughing Oh, do I God knows I've prayed, for that smile She got a suite at the new hotel downtown That ain't something she does And tried to call me out of the blue, and act like That was someone she was But you can't fool your own blood You can lie to a liar Go ahead and flame the fire Burn down, everything you love You can steal from a thief I'll act like I believe But you can't fool your own blood And I know roads, that I don't walk down I don't walk down Not no more They take me places, I don't wanna go Don't wanna go again But now and then, I take a wrong turn And then the lost highway claims me its own I've got a voice in my head Tells me it's fine, no matter what it does Got a broken compass in my pocket It's telling me, where it is I come from But you can't fool your own blood And you can lie to a liar Go ahead and flame the fire And burn down, everything you love You can steal from a thief I'll act like I believe But you can't fool your own blood Momma, you can lie to a liar Go ahead and flame the fire And burn down, all it is you love You can steal from a thief I'll act like I believe But you can't fool your own blood No, no, you can't fool No, you can't fool You can't fool your own blood
