"Wake Up With You" lyrics

I've been a hell of a highway man
Home's been a hotel room
Days run together
Dreams burn out when you're running on whiskey fumes

Whoa, my life's been a damned ol' rodeo
Whoa, and I want you to know

I'd turn my back on my best friend
If that's what it took to hold you again
Stand on the shore, turn back the tide
Just to feel your body up close to mine
Walk through the fire with holes in both of my boots
Just to wake up with you

Small-town cop, Nowhere, Alabama
"Son, why you going so fast?"
I just pointed down at the picture
That I keep on my dash

Whoa, I'm a runaway train tonight
Whoa, soon I'll be holding you tight

I'd turn my back on my best friend
If that's what it took to hold you again
Stand on the shore, turn back the tide
Just to feel your body up close to mine
Walk through the fire with holes in both of my boots
Just to wake up with you

Whoa, my life's been a damned ol' rodeo
Whoa, and I want you to know

I'd turn my back on my best friend
If that's what it took to hold you again
Stand on the shore, turn back the tide
Just to feel your body up close to mine
Walk through the fire with holes in both of my boots
Just to wake up with you
Yeah, just to wake up with you
