Copperhead Road - The Outlaws

Bought a one way ticket On a train Beadin' out of this one horse town Ain't too sure where I'm goin' I see the faces Of the children living out on the streets Lord knows I'm thankful I had my family to care for me 'Cause everyday now This road gets longer on by the mile, my life rolls onward My soul grows tired Nowhere to run to Lord Nowhere to hide Ain't got no money Man, I gave up on pride So where are you going, tell me I'd like to know Cause I'm a long way away from home Lonely feelings Lord, they lay by my side Most every night, I don't know why They seem to haunt me I feel the traces Of the memories etched upon my soul As my nights grow longer And my days grow old Nowhere to run to lord Nowhere to hide Ain't got no money Man, I gave up on pride So where are you going, tell me I'd like to know 'Cause I'm a long way away from home Lord, I'm a long way from home

When the sun goes down On my side of town That lonesome feeling Comes through my door The whole world turns blue There's a rundown bar Cross the railroad tracks I've got a table for two Way in the back Where I sit alone Think of losing you I spend most every night Beneath the light Of a neon moon If you lose your one and only There's always room here for the lonely Come watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon I think of two young lovers Running wild and free I close my eyes And sometimes see You in the shadows Of this smoke-filled room No telling how many tears I've sat here and cried Or how many lies That I've lied Telling my poor heart She'll come back someday Oh, but I'll be alright As long as there's light From a neon moon Oh, if you lose your one and only There's always room here for The lonely To watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon The jukebox plays on Drink by drink And the words of every sad song Seem to say what I think And this hurt inside of me Ain't never gonna end Oh, but I'll be alright As long as there's light From a neon moon Oh, if you lose your one and only There's always room here for the lonely Come watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon Come watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon Come watch your broken dreams Dance in and out of the beams Of a neon moon
