My Way Out

(アルバム： How Did I Get Here? - 2013)

Well I caught a bullet yeah
Down in Midland
For stealing cars from
That damned ol' railroad
Well I caught a bullet yeah
Down in Midland
For stealing cars from
That damned ol' railroad
And I'm a-singing

Well I moved to Jackson
With this blood trail
With this [?] blood trail
A-following me yeah
I moved to Jackson
With our blood trail
With this [?] blood trail
A-following me yeah
And I'm a-singing

Well I met this woman
Down in Tulsa
That woman treat me
Like a daggum king
Well I met this woman
Down in Tulsa
That woman swear to me
She'd never ever leave
She gone

I'm home to Texas
In the summer
In the summer
I will [?]
I'm home to Texas
In the summer
And you can bet your ass
I ain't never gonna leave
No no

Well I wrote that woman letters
I wrote her in the fall
In the spring and in the summer
Every pay phone I would call
Sweet Sue said she loved me
Yeah she said she always would
Yeah that was the kinda bull
Her daddy told her was no good
She had an itch for money
And I had my degree
So I handed her the world
And everything she want for free

Sweet Sue Lane
Why'd you have to leave?
Sweet Sue Lane
Why'd you do that to me?
Well you knew I'd give you everything
So hell I cannot blame sweet Sue Lane

She had eyes just like dandelions
Drifting in the wind
Her heart was as pure as a winter's snow
Melting once again
She had legs that last for days
Her hair was so soft and sweet
Yeah she was the kinda girl
That knock a man right off his feet

Sweet Sue Lane
Why'd you have to leave?
Sweet Sue Lane
Why'd you do that to me?
Well you knew I'd give you everything
So hell I cannot blame sweet Sue Lane

Sweet Sue moved to Dallas
In the spring of '52
She said "Oh Don't you worry
I will send for you"
Well I ain't heard from sweet Sue
In about 20 years
It's been a lot of whiskey bottles
And a lot of lonely tears

Sweet Sue Lane
Why'd you have to leave?
Oh sweet Sue Lane
Why'd you do that to me?
Well she knew I'd give her everything
So hell I cannot blame
Yeah she knew I'd give her everything
So hell I cannot blame
Oh you knew I'd give you anything
So hell I cannot blame sweet Sue Lane
