Lyrics
From the sky we look
So organized and brave
Walls that make up
Barricades and graves
Daddy's little empire
Built by hand
And built by slaves
From the sky we look
So organized and brave
In the heat I saw you
Rising from the dirt
Drunken tears
And tugging at your skirt
If only you could tell me
Then what part of you got hurt
In the heat I saw
You rising from the dirt
Take my hand
Baby we're over land
I know flying over water
Makes you cry
Where's that liquor cart?
Maybe we shouldn't start
But I can't for
The life of me say why
From the sky the highway's
Straight as it could be
A string pulled tight
From home to Tennessee
And still somehow those ditches
Took a better part of me
From the sky the highway's
Straight as it could be
Take my hand
Baby we're over land
I know flying over water
Makes you cry
We've been in the sky so long
It seems like a long way home
But I can't for
The life of me say why
Did we leave our love behind?
Did we leave our love behind?
Did we leave our love behind?
Did we leave our love behind?
Take my hand
Baby we're over land
I know flying over water
Makes you cry
We've been in the sky so long
It seems like a long way home
But I can't for
The life of me say why
Did we leave our love behind?
Did we leave our love behind?
Thank y'all very much
Thank you guys so much! Woo! Woo!
