Lyrics

In the middle of the night, smell the whiskey on my breath
I have a ache in my back where I passed out drunk on the floor
Still wearing my dirty liquor stained clothes as I drag myself into the hall
I see old pictures on the wall from times oh so long ago
I see an image of a man that I feel like I once knew
As I feel the bright burning light oh the flame shamed bud and the booze
Just for a moment I look around our home
See the flames consuming all we've ever owned
There's never been anything I couldn't live about
Just another moment I'd be done
So I get up and run
Grab my guitar and go
Out the back window
Of the flames of our home that we
Made long ago
Onto the ice and snow
The cold won't stop the flames
So I get up and run
As I watch the blaze and the flame
I pick an old Willie song
The flames dance in the light of the moon
The cops will be here soon
And they'll ask me, well, how'd it start
I'd say, I had the blues
Cause my woman, she left me late last night
So I lit up an old bottle of booze
Just for a moment I look at our home
See the flames consuming all we've ever owned
There's never been anything I couldn't live about
Just another moment I'd be done
So I get up and run
Grab my guitar and go
Out the back window
Of the flames of a home that we
Made long ago
Onto the ice and snow
The cold won't stop the flames
So I get up and run
Get up and run
Grab my guitar and go
Out the back window
Of the flames of our home that we
Made long ago
Onto the ice and snow
The cold won't stop the flames
The cold can't stop the flames
So I get up and run
