What I Left Behind

More road up ahead

My radio still broken

The spinning of the wheels and the fenceline lead my way

Your picture on the dash

And the need to fly so high

Are the only two things that I can hold today

I left you way down south

Crying at the river's mouth

I got a show up north so I guess it's just as well

You're still the one for me

But I'm the man I'll always be

And I won't be the one that takes you straight to hell

Cause I'm out here on my own

Drinkin' all alone

Thinkin' bout things and what I left behind

And I need you more right now

To give me redemption somehow

Rollin' north of that Red River line

So don't you cry for me

Cause I can taste what you can't see

But always know you got a place in my heart

I got an angel riding shotgun

I got the devil in the back

And the war they wage is gonna tear me apart

Cause I'm out here on my own

Drinkin' all alone

Thinkin' bout things and what I left behind

And I need you more right now

To give me redemption somehow

Rollin' north of that Red River line

As I'm talking to you now

The sun is going down

I don't know where I am, but God it makes me smile

I need just one more word coming from your sweet lips

And I swear I'll call you back in a little while

Cause I'm out here on my own

Drinkin' all alone

Thinkin' bout things and what I left behind

And I need you more right now

To give me redemption somehow

Rollin' north of that Red River line
