Lyrics

I heard they cleaned up the wreck outside of Slidell
Just before the dawn
I heard five people got murdered
By a drunk woman talkin' on her cell phone
I got drunk last night in Slidell
Waitin' on the cleanup crew
I've been on the road for fifteen days
Waitin' just to get home to you
But just before the dawn
You hear the rooster crow
Just before the dawn
I'm gonna rise up, rise up slow
The nighttime drivin' is like a dream
Hallucinations rise up from the road
And it's lonesome at 5 AM
When the white line becomes your soul
And just as the sun begins to rise
The highway gets foggy as hell
And all the musicians are sleepin'
You ain't got nothin' but yourself
Just before the dawn
You hear the rooster crow
Just before the dawn
I'm gonna rise up, rise up slow
I heard they cleaned up the wreck outside of Slidell
Just before I passed through
I've been sittin' for five hours on this barstool
Waitin' and thinkin' 'bout you
