Hornets

Lyrics

There ain't nothin' left for me here
 I gotta get out
 Spent the better part of 29 years just tryin' to get out
 Got no one runnin' after me
 Pray these two feet carry me south
 Then, out of the corner of my eye
 You're lookin' at me
 I've got ... painted on my thigh
 You're weak in the knees
 Let's leave town by the frontage road
 Follow the sound of the blackest road south
 Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
 I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
 If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?
 I'll be there to have and hold you
 We've only travelled 17 miles
 You wanna turn back
 Don't leave your little girl in the wild
 The sky's turnin' black
 Play tug-o-war til the mornin' comes
 Find the road
 Stick out your thumb
 Hold it there
 If no one comes, just run
 Got no one runnin' after me
 Pray these two feet carry me
 Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
 I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
 If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?
 I'll be there to have and hold you
 My rations runnin' low and I'm alone when I hit the state line
 Turnin' back is the only way to go
 Back to what's mine
 I'll die in the bed that I was born in
 Gone from this world without warnin', babe
 Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
 I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
 If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?
 I'll be there to have and hold you
 Would that you were gone away and I was gone with you
 I'd sit myself right down, and I'd lace up my travelin' shoes
 If I lose you down the road, would you look over your shoulder?
 I'll be there to have and hold you
