People have the right to fly And will when it gets compromised Their hearts say, "Move along" Their minds say, "Gotcha heart Let's move it along" And airports see it all the time Where someone's last goodbye Blends in with someone's sigh Cause someone's coming home In hand a single rose And that's the way this wheel keeps working now That's the way this wheel keeps working now And I won't be the last No, I won't be the last To love her You can't build a house of leaves And live like it's an evergreen It's just a season thing It's just this thing the seasons do And that's the way this wheel keeps working now That's the way this wheel keeps working now And you won't be the first No, you won't be the first To love me You can find me If you ever want again I'll be around the bend I'll be around the bend I'll be around I'll be around And if you never stop when you wave goodbye You just might find if you give it time, you will wave hello again You just might wave hello again And that's the way this wheel keeps working now That's the way this wheel keeps working now You can't love too much one part of it You can't love too much one part of it I believe that my life's gonna see The love I give returned to me

Your silhouette its in my nightmare And I cant rest my eyes as all And ill be leavin by the morning Ya ever seen Chicago in the fall Mama told me I was nothing That who I was aint who I am And livin free out here gets lonely Swore id do the best I can Cause who I was aint who I am I swore id do the best I can Cause who I was aint who I am I swore id do the best I can A young man angry with a heartache Will steal and cheat and lie to live And gasoline out on this highway Burin bridges of revenge Cause who I was aint who I am I swore id do the best I can White lines keep to make my troubles on through the night White lines baby all I ever see when you're cryin My blinds are drawn Greenville aint too far from Austin A day by foot a night by train And ill leave roses for my baby Wrapped inside a wedding ring Cause who I was aint who I am I swore id do the best I can Cause who I was aint who I am I swore id do the best I can

Sorry baby, I've been drinkin' I tend to ramble when I do Sorry baby, I've been drinkin' Got the life I wanted, and he got you But if he ever leaves you lonely Don't go find nobody else If there's a chance that you still want me You know damn well I need some help I'm tired of drinkin' I'm tired of drinkin' by myself Do you miss me when you're drinkin' And would you tell me if you did? If you don't miss me when you're drinkin' I guess that means that you love him But if he ever leaves you lonely Don't go find nobody else If there's a chance that you still want me You know damn well I need some help I'm tired of drinkin' Tired of drinkin' by myself If there's a chance that you still want me You know damn well I need some help I'm tired of drinkin' So tired of drinkin' I'm tired of drinkin' by myself I'm tired of drinkin' by myself

Late night train back to Austin Couple cars, cocaine, and the interstate Most every night, this is what it's like You don't answer, I keep callin' just to stay awake Hope what you said wasn't meant for me You told me I was no good It's alright babe, I'm pretty used to being misunderstood I never pegged you for what you are Had it in my head I would break your heart Hate to think about what I did Some things in me are broke, I can't find a fix Hope what you said wasn't meant for me You told me I was no good It's alright babe, I'm pretty used to being misunderstood It's alright babe, I'm pretty used to being misunderstood Go home and sleep 'til I leave again That's why I gave you up, couldn't watch you cry You said you'd wait on me patiently But I'll live out of a bag 'til the day I die I guess I get how you think of me You told me I was no good It's alright babe, I'm pretty used to being misunderstood It's alright babe, I'm pretty used to being misunderstood It's alright babe, I'm pretty used to being misunderstood

I came in going at a hundred miles an hour Just a kid outta Conroe looking for something a little bit louder Learning it gets blurry, in a hurry on the edge I spent damn near 15 years out on the highway pushing red Hammer down, never sticking around, head harder than a tree Foot on the gas, never looking back and always ready to leave I remember shaking my head when my old man told me "Boy, one of these days, you won't always be hung up on speed" She came in slow and easy, falling like a feather Her blue eyes felt like an old handwritten letter I learned the hard way she was right about taking her time So, I just pretend that wherever she is, it's at the end of the line Hammer down, never sticking around, head harder than a tree Foot on the gas, never looking back and always ready to leave I remember shaking my head when that girl was telling me "Boy, one of these days, you won't always be hung up on speed" Hammer down, never sticking around, head harder than a tree Foot on the gas, never looking back and always ready to leave I remember shaking my head when my old man told me "Boy, one of these days, you won't always be hung up on speed" "Boy, one of these days, you won't always be hung up on speed"
