...
[Verse 1]
Diesel's humming, gray skies above,
A rough old drifter still chasing love.
Dust on my jacket, blood on my skin,
You're the only place I've ever been.
I've lost long nights in the pouring rain,
Whiskey and memories, nothing to gain.
The highway was loud, my soul was still,
Then your smile whispered, "Stay if you will."
[Chorus]
You're my Heart of Rust,
Burning through the darkest night.
When the whole world's on our trail,
You're the reason I still fight.
I'd rather fall beside you free,
Than live a safe and empty life.
Two outlaw souls against the wind,
Bound together through the fire.
[Verse 2]
That old V8 sings its lonesome tune,
Rolling beneath a blood-red moon.
Sheriff lights fade in the mirror behind,
Freedom's the only law on my mind.
No diamond rings, no mansion walls,
Just open roads and southern calls.
Your hand in mine on a broken seat,
Makes every mile feel bittersweet.
[Bridge]
Maybe we'll end on a lonely road,
With worn-out boots beneath the cold.
But if I go, I won't go alone,
Your name will lead my spirit home.
[Final Chorus]
You're my Heart of Rust,
My final song at sunset's glow.
If the Devil calls my name tonight,
He already knows where I'll go.
Love is worth more than law or gold,
More than glory money buys.
As long as your heart beats next to mine,
This outlaw never truly dies.
[Outro]
The highway ends for every man,
But our tracks stay carved into the sand.
No king. No saint. No famous name.
Just a road dog...
With a Heart of Rust that still burns like a flame.
