Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A heart on the run
Keeps a hand on the gun
You can't trust anyone
[Verse 2]
I was so sure
What I needed was more
Tried to shoot out the sun
[Verse 3]
In days when we raged
We flew off the page
Such damage was done
[Verse 4]
But I made it through
'Cause somebody knew
I was meant for someone
[Verse 5]
So girl leave your boots by the bed, we ain't leavin' this room
Till someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
[Verse 6]
Put your faith to the test
When I tore off your dress
In Richmond on high
[Verse 7]
I sobered up
And I swore off that stuff
Forever this time
And the old lovers sing, "I thought it'd be me who helped him get home"
But home was a dream
One I'd never seen
Till you came along
[Verse 8]
So girl hang your dress up to dry we ain't leavin' this room
Till Percy Priest breaks open wide and the river runs through
Carries this house on the Stones like a piece of drift wood
Cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
[Verse 9]
So girl leave your boots by the bed, we ain't leavin' this room
Till someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
Cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
