Dead or Alive

We got mad, words were said

And I ended up two states down

Threw my phone in a ditch

You son of a, better not try to call me now

Anger makes you blind

All I wanted was to find a vacant motel room

Didn't have the money, but I had my daddy's .40

Now a bounty big enough for two

Now I'm running, loving the chase

Something you know well

You cast me aside like one of your cigarettes

Lit me up and burned me out

They know my name across four states

37 counties wide

You didn't care, but the sheriff wants me

Dead or alive

Leave no trace, change your name

Is what the man at the truck stop told me

Better get going, keep your wheels rolling

If you wanna stay free

Risked the cops, but I had to make a stop

Before I disappeared

To see who I used to call mine

And make my feelings clear

Now I'm running, loving the chase

Something you know well

You cast me aside like one of your cigarettes

Lit me up and burned me out

They know my name across four states

37 counties wide

You didn't care, but the sheriff wants me

Dead or alive

Your mama's been worried sick

For the past few weeks

But they won't find you, I'd bet on it too

They sure as hell won't find me

Now I'm running, loving the chase

Something you knew well

You cast me aside like one of your cigarettes

Lit me up and burned me out

They know my name in every state

And all these counties wide

You didn't care, but the sheriff wants me

Dead

Dead or alive
