Odessa

(album: The Man From Waco - 2022)

I've got Odessa on my mind, I stay worried all the time
Wish I didn't hurt so much but I don't have that kind of luck
It's a low down dirty shame now I can't even hear her name
So I'm selling off my pride with Odessa on my mind

I've got Odessa in my head, I think I like to wake up dead
Then I finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
Yes I know I'm talking bad but I've done lost the best I had
Ain't no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind

I've got Odessa on my mind, I think I rather would be blind
Than to see her walk away, how much pain can one fool take?
See them lights out in the field, a testament to things men yield
But I ain't got nothing but time and Odessa on my mind

I've got Odessa in my head, sometimes I like to wake up dead
Then I finally take my rest and get this weight up off my chest
Yes I know I'm talking bad but I've done lost the best I had
Ain't no way to walk no line with Odessa on my mind
