I found my demons Caught them where they were sleeping Now I know, I'll never be alone Shaving after drinking Come downstairs just steadily bleeding And exposing, my jaw bone While my engine stammers and shakes Another quart of oil, straight in the tank Push the pedal, pull the brake Seeing is deceiving And to think you had me believing In cottonwoods and two-step songs I got my papers of indenture So many years living up to my potential It's probably time to take about 20 years off While my engine stammers and shakes Another quart of oil, straight in the tank Push the pedal, pull the brake Push the pedal, pull the brake Good morning, South Carolina Left a trail of dog bones behind you Hoping I might follow you inside Hoping I might follow While my hands they tremble and shake Got to calm them down with another round of drinks Push the pedal, pull the brake Push the pedal, pull the brake Push the pedal Push the pedal, pull the brake
