We Could Die Out Here Lyrics

It's gonna be a cold one tonight and the wind is howlin'

Like a wolf at the moon or a lonesome midnight train

I been on the road three weeks, I'm drunk and dirty

But I'm ready and I'm willin'

I didn't come to sing no Dylan

It'll be a long road home when this thing's over

Probably won't have much to show

Just some sweat-stained dirty old clothes

And I'll have earned a few more scratches on this Gibson

My old man will call me up

He'll ask me where you at tonight, son where you been

And I'll tell him

It's another night in a smoky old honky-tonk

Gas station food and sleepin' in parkin' lots

From here to Texas to the coast

I've won every fight I've ever fought

Seen every Wal-Mart parkin' lot

It's the price you pay for the dice you roll

We could die out here and nobody would ever know

You know I miss my gal when she ain't with me

But she's always on my mind, you know I think about her all the time

And someday when I'm old and close to dyin'

They'll ask me how it was, they'll ask me why'd you do it

Would you do it again

And I'll tell 'em

Gimme another night in a smoky old honky-tonk

Gas station food and sleepin' in parkin' lots

From here to Texas to the coast

I've won every fight I've ever fought

Seen every Wal-Mart parkin' lot

It's the price you pay for the dice you roll

We could die out here and nobody would ever know

We could die out here, might never be found

Might be nothin' left but a highway cross to say we ever came 'round

That's a chance I'll take if it puts me in my grave

'Cause I got a thousand miles to go and three more shows to play

What do you say

And I'll say

Gimme another night in a smoky old honky-tonk

Gas station food and sleepin' in parkin' lots

From here to Texas to the coast

I've won every fight I've ever fought

Seen every Wal-Mart parkin' lot

It's the price you pay for the dice you roll

We could die out here and nobody would ever know

We could die out here and nobody would ever know
