She took the highroad, I took the weeds,
She took me down, so easily
For the first time in a long time,
I didn't want anything to change,
Now I'm lining up empties on the horizon,
And the girl is bringing on the rain
Bourbon on her lips, and on her fingertips,
Finally at last, I'm gonna raise that glass,
First time in a long time, I was riding high again,
But like the blind man, down the alley,
I'm drinking up a cup of rain
I do my time, I walk the line, in the wilderness
It's a lonely bar, it's back to the start
It's a table for one,
Waiting on, the sweet long gone
I throw my cards on the table,
Let the freedom bell ring,
Didn't cost me nothing,
Just the girl of my dreams,
For the first time in a long time,
I'm waiting on the world to change,
And I'm lining up empties on the horizon,
The girls bringing on the rain
