Deadman's Curve

You can go to hell, my dear

You'd probably like it better there

With all them boys who thought they could make it

Deadman's curve gonna lay them down

All the things you put me through

Safe to say I'm tired of you

Had our times, yeah we had a few

But where we gonna be when the pills run out

Where we gonna go when the dam breaks loose

And the white line fever gets a hold of you

How we gonna make it to higher ground

If you won't get up and leave

I reckon if I chose to stay

It'd be better for a few more days

But it the end it always rains

And honey, you can cause a storm

But I'm tired and soakin' wet

And hunkered over trying to catch my breath

Broke my back and did my best

To hold you through the shakes

But it's hard to keep floatin' on foundered dream

You're takin' in water at crazy speed

How can I get to the shore on time

If you won't keep afloat

My heart was never much on games

Let alone the ones you play

I've only got one and it's already broken

So why you wanna throw it around

I wish I had the strength to go

But it's a long and hateful road

And I just now got to feelin' at home

And the frost you put on me

Where we gonna go when the dam breaks loose

And the white line fever gets a hold of you

How we gonna make it to higher ground

If you won't get up and leave

And it's hard to keep floatin' on foundered dream

You're takin' in water at crazy speed

How can I get to the shore on time

If you won't keep afloat

You can go to hell, my dear

You'd probably like it better there

With all them boys who thought they could make it

Deadman's curve gonna lay them down
