"Dead Man's Road" lyrics

"Dead Man's Road"

Drivin' all through the night with bloodshot eyes
Keepin' them open ain't a battle, it's a fight
Runnin' from my problems that keep me goin'
My life's been lived all wrong
Since things went south in that border town
The men that crossed me are gone
Had no choice but to put them down
It's crazy what a man can do
When you beat him black and blue

Don't mess with me, I'll show you my hand
I'm a son of a son of a fightin' man
You're playin' a game you just can't win
I'm the fastest gun there's ever been
You haven't walked the miles in my shoes
I've been through hell and I've got nothin' to lose
You can't break what's already broke
Out here on this dead man's road

As the night grows cold
The devil on my shoulder gets closer to my soul
It's a God damn shame
Well, I remember the crime but can't forget the name
I ain't the evil you seek
May God have mercy on me

Don't mess with me, I'll show you my hand
I'm a son of a son of a fightin' man
You're playin' a game you just can't win
I'm the fastest gun there's ever been
You haven't walked the miles in my shoes
I've been through hell and I've got nothin' to lose
You can't break what's already broke
Out here on this dead man's road

I can't shake the past
And there's no goin' back
I am what I am and I don't give a damn
What do you think about that?

Don't mess with me, I'll show you my hand
I'm a son of a son of a fightin' man
You're playin' a game you just can't win
I'm the fastest gun there's ever been
You haven't walked the miles in my shoes
I've been through hell and I've got nothin' to lose
You can't break what's already broke
No, you can't break what's already broke
No, you can't break what's already broke
Out here on a dead man's road
Out here on a dead man's road
Out here on a dead man's road
