Everyday you're on my mind but I feel that I'm wasting time when I'm with you
I try to call ya on the phone, but I find out that you're not alone, you're with someone new
Well, since I'm not the only one, well, I'm sorry boy but I gotta run, I got things to do
cause I'm going 1-40 West, 430 South, 65 into Mississippi


I'll be crossing Mississippi lines, you're gonna have one helluva time trying to find me
I'm gonna find a joint that jukes so I can hear some Delta Blues down 'round Biloxi
I'll be driving 85, you won't know if I'm dead or alive would ya baby?
cause I'm going 1-40 West, 430 South, 65 into Mississippi
I'm going 1-40 West, 430 South, 65 into Mississippi


I guarantee you'll be missing me, I do believe, just you wait and see
And if I get tired of being on the scene I'm only 2 hours from New Orleans


When I'm rolling on black water you'll be thinking that you oughta give me a call
But baby you don't even know that I'm 20 miles past Tupelo, your not on my mind at all
cause I'm going 1-40 West, 430 South, 65 into Mississippi
I'm going 1-40 West, 430 South, 65 into Mississippi

I've been down this road a few times baby
You think I'd know by now that I'm not all that crazy
You know my health ain't so good
I'm not actin' like I should
And the more I think about it, the worse shape I'm in


Refrain
And I'm back on my feet again
And I'm back on my feet again
You know the whole world crashed around and I made it thru somehow
Now I'm standing on the street screamin' here I am
Back on my feet again


I spent all this time just lyin' in bed
Givin' half my life to the voices in my head
Callin' on the things that you love cause God's way too far above
And you're findin' out if your friends really are your friends


Loosen up this gauge and open up this cage that I've been trapped inside since
I don't know when

The streets are hummin'
And the winds are comin'
The rain is drivin' like a solid drummin'
Take me away to where it's dry and warm
Runnin' for shelter in the eye of the storm


Sirens are wailin'
And the bridges are swayin'
Leave all your riches and forget your prayin'
Cause it's too late to cry and mourn
Runnin' for shelter in the eye of the storm


Run, Run, Run, Run
Runnin' for Shelter


Run for your lives
No shotguns or knives
Won't shoot down the lightning
Won't tear up the sky
Feel like I'm dying or it's just that I'm reborn
Runnin' for shelter in the eye of the storm


Run, Run, Run, Run
Runnin' for Shelter

I've been hearin' you and I been watchin' you
Look at me like I'm crazy
You keep tellin' me how it oughta be
What you talkin' bout baby


You're the one havin' fun, not gettin' a damn thing done
Boy, you're just plain lazy
You say it's me, but I disagree
Let me just put it plainly


Refrain
Boy, you oughta be ashamed, givin' me the blame
for everything
Boy, you ougtha be ashamed
You oughta be ashamed


Boy, what's wrong with you, you don't have a clue
What you're even sayin'
I'm so tired of you and all the things you do
Baby, I ain't playin'


Baby, I don't believe, when ya say that you're gonna leave
Where you plannin' on stayin'?
If you left tonight, I know I'd be right
You'd be out there strayin'


Baby, maybe, you should just leave
Don't try and save me, cause baby it ain't me!

"Give me five minutes to finish my sentence," he said.
"Well, I really love you but I'm marrying her instead."
Well, then you proceeded that you never cheated or sinned
When two weeks ago, you said, "don't worry baby, she's just a friend!"


Refrain
Well I didn't say you were wrong, but now that few days have gone
I'm over, above and beyond some anger I've missed
And I'm Pissed!
I'm Pissed!


"Well, we're gonna live in a boat off the coast of some sea."
Well, you probably told her the same and the one before me
I was the one and planned that we'd stand before God
As much as you're lying, baby, you should be brought up on fraud


Well, I'm tearing up all the pictures of you that I kept
And I'm gonna tell everyone that you're no good in bed
I don't know anything now, but from what I can tell
The hatter had nothin' on me, babe, I'm madder than hell

Refrain
Jaded
You're so Faded
You've been Dated
You're so Jaded


You been coming round here
With your head hung low
It's obvious to me that someone did you wrong long ago
I hear it wasn't your fault
That you came undone
Cause you were sold and bought and returned for a full refund


It's been goin' around
they sayin' things that ain't true
You say it doesn't matter just as long as they're talkin' about you
I would have liked to known
how you used to be
Just for once I'd like to see you wearin' your heart on your sleeve


I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be

I was born down in the Delta and that's where I paid my dues
Where it's a 100 degrees in the shade of the trees
and it's hot like the devil's tattoo
They all hollerin' and choppin' and shoutin' as they work in twos


"Lord have mercy, baby, I am the blues"


I did 15 years in Parchman for practicin' voodoo
I mixed the goober dust up with the elephant's tusk
and I got the John de Conquer Root
Evil's over in Coahoma county, and it's all covered in kudzu


"Lord have mercy, baby, I am the blues"


Well this road I've walked is long
But the blues it's made me strong
You know many are called but
the chosen they are few


Now when I die and I get up to heaven
I'll be takin' off my walkin' shoes
And I'll be restin' my head about the life I have led
and all the things that I had to do
there'll be an old man beatin' on a six string
and he's just tryin' to spread the news


"Lord have mercy, baby, I am the blues"
Well this road I've walked is long
But the blues it's made me strong
You know many are called but
the chosen they are few


Well, I was born down in the Delta, baby
and that's what I can't refuse


"Lord have mercy, baby, I am the blues"
"Lord have mercy, baby, I am the blues"

In another hotel room
They say has a decent view
But that's not what's taking my breath away
On the coast of Louisiana
Learning how to never say never
And I swore I'd never feel this way


Refrain
And I have changed the locks on these doors
Where junkies die and boys bring their whores
Do not disturb, No vacancy
Cause I got the key to room 317


Put in for a wake-up call
Maybe wander on down the hall
Get some clean linens from your best friend
Listen to your neighbors mumble
You lay there feeling somewhat humble
Some place to start and some place to end


Take out their paper, write you a little note
Everyday they bring you a little bar of soap
And you don't need nothin' here, man
You can get what you want
You can just charge it to the room

I got somethin' that you should know
Burnin' candles all in a row
Pictures from a magazine
I got matches you got kerosene


Refrain
You're throwin' gas on the fire baby
1500 degrees
You got me walkin' on coals with my bare feet
Get it while it's Hot
Get it while it's Hot
Take it while you got the shot
Get it while it's hot


Been in the desert baby and I don't care
cause it's hotter here than it is anywhere
You came right in and turned on the heat
You made the waves wiggle off the street


Somebody bring me something that I can drink
cause it's too damn hot in here to even think
Got me flickerin' like a flame
I ain't never gonna be the same

Drinkin' in a roadside tavern
Trying to make it through
Swearing off everything I'd ever done
When I first laid eyes on you
Well, I was just about to walk out
When I turned myself around
I said, "hey, baby, can I buy you a drink?"
He said, "yeah, I'll take shot of Crown."


He said his name was something
But I can't remember what
He lived somewhere near Denver
And I think he said he drove a truck
We were dancing near the jukebox
When we bumped into the waitress
We just stood there soaked in our bourbon and coke
And, man, it just got contagious


Refrain
Sticky, Sticky Whiskey
Sticky, just like glue
Sticky, Sticky Whiskey
Sticky Whiskey
Got me stuck on you


Standing in the middle of the dance floor
We were sticky like molasses
We were picking up broken pieces of
Hearts and whiskey glasses
It didn't matter how we got there
Or the direction we were taken
I'd been reborn, no longer torn
My soul was stirred, not shaken


We spent the next three days together
We paid the hotel by the hour
We washed that whiskey off with real hot water
But this feeling I can't lose by standing in the shower


Spinning my wheels here lately
Just smoking lots of cigarettes
Four or five years have crawled by
But that feeling hasn't washed off yet
Well, I got me a job as a waitress
Just to keep you off my mind
Cleaning up sticky whiskey
Thinking about the time

You bit your bottom lip
And took a last look around
You drove your car out of this town
You had been swearin' it and tellin' it for years
The only place for you's not here


Refrain
So, What took ya so long
To change the look that was on your face?
What took ya so long
To get out of this place?
Now that you're so strong
Does it all make it easier to say,
What took ya so long?
What took ya so long?
What took ya so long?


You sent me postcards with
Pictures of the sun above
And the words "greetings from"
And you signed "with love"
You finally made the trip
and now you can't recall
all the things that held you down at all


You bit your bottom lip
And took a last look around
You should have left here before now

If anybody asks you, tell em I'm leavin'
Tell 'em I'm going home to stay
somewhere that's peaceful, just like the ocean
And I hear him callin' me home today


I've spent a lifetime climbin' up mountains
Carryin' crosses all around
and I'm so tired, my heart's so weary
I've got a weight that I long to put down
You're gonna have to call another witness
cause I've lost all my defenses
and I'm going to a new place that I've found
I'm going to see Jesus cause you know that he can free us
And I hear him callin' me home now


If anybody asks you, tell em I'm leavin'
Tell 'em I'm going home to stay
somewhere that's peaceful, just like the ocean
And I hear him callin' me home today


I hear him callin' me home, callin' me by my name
I hear him callin' me home, and he's callin' me home to stay


If anybody asks you, tell em I'm leavin'
Tell 'em I'm going home to stay
somewhere that's peaceful, just like the ocean
And he's callin' me home today
