Middle of Nowhere Lyrics

We're proud but less than formal

Runnin' hot and far from normal

My son you're wonderin' 'bout the road we're on

With the car and us careenin'

Suck it up - they'll be no squealin'

It's time to learn to play the cards we've drawn

It's a rattlesnake watch in the middle of nowhere

No right or wrong - just flesh and blood

Don't say we're lost, don't even go there … down down down down down down

We're on the run but we're still workin'

It's fear 'n shadows lurkin'

Nothing really further to discuss

Well it's a swampy mess of voodoo

That all y'all can see too

It's pain that's claimed a seat right next to us

It's a rattlesnake watch in the middle of nowhere

No right or wrong - just flesh and blood

Don't say we're lost, don't even go there

Of all the fathers and sons

That drank the beer and fired guns

It's only ours they found on Devil Dog Road

Lay down your fury

Think you're lawman, judge and jury

Let's finish up before your brain explodes

It's a rattlesnake watch in the middle of nowhere

No right or wrong - just flesh and blood

Don't say we're lost, don't even go there … down down down down down down

We know the pick-axe preacher

Done killed that hapless teacher

It's rotten luck they stumbled on your blood

There's only just a little time

To dig his grave and spread lime

And pray we can escape the comin' flood

The end is near, so plain to see

There's nothing left for you and me

There comes a time, my son, to worry no more
