Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yeah, with my black leather hat on

With my heart torn in two

You saw me comin'

You knew what I would do

With a message in my waistband

With my trail covered in snow

You saw me comin'

Then you watched me go

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you saw me comin'

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you saw me comin'

[Verse 2]

Yeah, there's ghosts and highway men waiting

'Round every turn in this road

And you saw me comin'

To you, my innocence showed

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you saw me comin'

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you saw me comin'

[Instrumental]

Like the hopes and dreams of soldiers

Left on the battleground

You saw me comin'

Then you let me down

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you saw me comin'

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you saw me comin'
