High Weeds And Rust

(album: Out With A Bang - 1994)

There's a shutter hanging from a window pane
The paint's 'a cracking from the sun and the rain
I just quit caring 'cause I'm all alone
My woman left me in a broken home with

High weeds and rust
Up around my truck
With a broken heart
In an inch of dust
Well I've seen it all
Boom turn to bust
And I'm bout to drown
In high weeds and rust

Well there's a tractor sitting in an empty field
I swore I wouldn't do nothing 'til my heart had healed
My friends say son get her off your mind
But when the bank comes looking for me all they'll find is

High weeds and rust
Up around my truck
With a broken heart
In an inch of dust
Well I've seen it all
Boom turn to bust
And I'm bout to drown
In high weeds and rust

Well black birds sitting on the telephone line
Watching me laying around wasting time
Never thought I could sink so low
I can't believe I just let it go to

High weeds and rust
Up around my truck
With a broken heart
In an inch of dust
Well I've seen it all
Boom turn to bust
And I'm bout to drown
