Hmmmm…
got my Hat hung low, I walk that riverside,
With Dust on my boots, with a limp in my stride.
Calluses and blood stainin’ up my hands,
Leaving my mark in the rocks wherever I land.
(Chorus)
Smoke’s rollin,across that sky tonight
I’m walkin’ that fine line, tryin’ to do right.
Just followin’ the flow of that thin-cut creek,
Wonderin’ what the angels think when they look at me.
Birds start singin’ a brand-new song,
Devil’s on my heels ‘cause he knows that I’ve done wrong.
Tryin’ to drag me down that road to hell,
But what he don’t know — a dead man tells no tales.
(Verse 2)
Got the past on my back, scars that don’t fade,
Whiskey in my soul, and dues still unpaid.
Heaven’s a whisper, hell’s in the wind,
And I’m caught somewhere between both ends.
(Chorus)
Smoke’s rollin,across that sky tonight
I’m walkin’ that fine line, tryin’ to do right.
Just followin’ the flow of that thin-cut creek,
Wonderin’ what the angels think when they look at me.
Birds start singin’ a brand-new song,
Devil’s on my heels ‘cause he knows that I’ve done wrong.
Tryin’ to drag me down that road to hell,
But what he don’t know — a dead man tells no tales.
(Bridge)
If I fall before the sunrise,
Don’t you cry, no, don’t you cry.
My story ain’t over, it just turns the page,
In the book of a sinner tryin’ to find his way.
(Final Chorus)
Smoke’s rollin,across that sky tonight
Still walkin’ that fine line, tryin’ to do right.
Just followin’ the flow of that thin-cut creek,
And maybe someday them angels’ll speak.
Birds keep singin’ that brand-new song,
Devil keeps chasin’, but he won’t for long.
Tryin’ to drag me down that road to hell,
But what he don’t know — a dead man tells no tales.
