Carter

Lyrics

Waffle's in the morning
 Turkey's in the brain
 Desperate boys in windswept fields
 Running for the train
 Skin soaked revelations
 Whiskey before dawn
 It won't be the same now that Carter's gone
 Driving on the stateline
 That high and lonesome sound
 Wake up on that hilltop
 Carter's in the ground
 It makes you kind of hang your head
 Cry into the dawn
 Cause it won't be the same now that Carter's gone
 White doves in the heart
 I heard somebody say
 Nobody's ever going to play those songs that way again
 And I drive through old Kentucky
 Tearing through the gears
 Trying not to think of him
 Through all my Bluegrass tears
 Put that guitar beneath the bus
 I can't play another one
 They don't sound the same now that Carter's gone
 Things will never be the same
 Now that Carter's gone
