Lyrics Every Time I Die

Every Time I Die

Punch-Drunk Punk Rock Romance

You drove up in your pickup truck that hot September day

Not a wisp of wind in the parking lot but honey I was blown away

And later on that fall at the Dixie Mall when I didn't know what to say

I seen hidin' her hair and no dynamite but honey I was blown away

Big sister said, "You'd better watch out"

I slammed my door and said, "You don't know what you're talking about"

Mama said I sang when the telephone rang

And she called out, "Honey, it's Ray"

And like a piece of dust on a four lane road

Honey I was blown away

I'm talking 'bout smithereens, just you in a pair of jeans

Now I know what crazy means

Big sister said, "You'd better watch out"

I slammed my door and said, "You don't know what you're talking about"

Then on a Tuesday night Daddy said

Some guy's on the porch with a big bouquet

As you stood there with your slicked-back hair

I was blown away

And when we slipped out back across the railroad track

And you softly touched my face

Well I never did feel a train go by

But honey I was blown away

Well I never did feel a train go by

But I was blown away
