about

True story about touring and leaving a neurotic guitar player on the side of the road. Lots of drama! All true. Has an outlaw country feel

lyrics

LEAVE YOU ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD
Written by Cathy Lemons, BMI: Take No Prisoners

I been running all my life, even when I got the knife
Seems I falter now, when I got the gun

You have worn me down so long
Kindness well it must be wrong
Memphis is two hours from us now

Heartbeat highway in my ear, dragging up a mighty fear
Yes we really are so all alone

Blackened pairing of a yellow line
Running through me all the time
A coward or a man, you let me know

Leave you on the side of the road

See that liar in the front, he tells me just what I want
His girlfriend plays him, Lord, just like a bow

Dancer whispers in his ear
She squats down in my rearview mirror
She's got a plot, and he will make it so

Heartbeat highway in my ear, dragging up a mighty fear
Yes we really are so all alone

Blackened pairing of a yellow line
Running through me all the time
A coward or a man, you let me know

Leave you on the side of the road

You see me smile and pretend
Surrounded by so many men
It's little me that is your deadly foe

Don't hear a sound, don't turn around
Ya won't see me coming, now shove it down
No mercy for a child that won't grow old

Heartbeat highway in my ear, dragging up a mighty fear
Yes we really are so all alone

Blackened pairing of a yellow line
Running through me all the time
A coward or a man, you let me know

Leave you on the side of the road

I will
Oh oh
Mm (Leave you on the side of the road)
On the side of the road, baby, right there

See that motel, well you can check in right there
We gonna gas up
(Leave you on the side of the road)

Get your stuff out of my van!
Take it all!
You can get your little white trash bag, and your guitar
And tell your mama on the phone, it’s time to…
(Leave you on the of the road)

Oh ya
(Leave you on the side)
Oh look behind us boys (Leave you on the side)


Ya see him (He’s on the side of the road)
Ya see out there?


Now we can breathe (Leave you on the side)
Oh I will (Leave you on the side)
Leave you on the side of the road

Hey hey hey!

Leave you on the side,
Leave you on the side,
Leave you on the side of the road
