Dan Takes Five

Stuffed my heart in a bag and I slammed the back door

If I get home, it'd be a home no more

Took off runnin' in the middle of the night

I was aimed for anything that felt half right

Look out, baby, I'm gone on a little ride

I see my name written in the center line

Moon looks, good air is cool

Every bone been broken in the golden rule

Well, I'm flyin through Dothan with my radio

Taylor's Ole Time Opry's playin' Hank Snow

Sing's my nightmares in his song

I said I'm with ya, man, I'm just movin' on

Look out, baby, your wish came true

You got your freedom, the house and the whole canoe

I got the things that I need

I took the car, my pride and three pairs of jeans

My brain is bleedin', got nails in my spine

But I ain't gon' stop 'fore that empty line

Radio's fadin', road's like a snake

It's two in the mornin' and I'm wide awake

Look out, baby, Gates of Eden got closed

But New Orlean's open, see the pretty lights glow

I'm goin' in to get myself lost and found

And it didn't take too god damn long to tear a good thing down

It may not be ideal

But at least we're not running at the mouth

I-10 to San Antone

Woke up and went south

Fleeced at the border

For thirty five and some change

But that's a small price to pay

Runnin' from the pain

Look out, baby, I'm gone on a little ride

There's a brush fire on the highway, gonna burn both side

Wish I could throw our sins in the flame and smoke

I'll call you up if and when I reach home

Gone on a ride, baby, I'm gone

I'm gone on a ride, yeah, baby, I'm gone

I'm gone on a ride, yeah, I'm gone, gone, gone

I'm gone on a ride , I'm gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone, gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

And you can kiss it bye, bye, bye
