Well I'm counting dead dogs on the highway Praying for a place to piss And any sign or anyone that can tell me Whatever road this is Tore out of town on a dark two-lane blacktop 'Til it and you were out of sight There was nothing ever really wrong dear Just nothing really right You can almost hear a steel guitar playing As you sang your medly of lies I'm like the hound that asked that deadly question What's on the other side? You were an angel the day that I met you A devil the next day on I stopped counting the ways that I love you And started counting the days 'til I was gone I blew off life and went rolling down the highway I forgot just how good it feels One more drink will wipe away your memory Like washing blood from my wheels This road can't go on forever Even if I want it too Like counting dead dogs on the highway Kind of makes me think about you You can almost hear a steel guitar playing As you sang your medly of lies I'm like the hound that asked that deadly question What's on the other side?
