Mile Over 45

(álbum: Mississippi - 2023)

Gave half my life to the sawmill
Gave half my hand to the blade
Well that's all that I have to show for
Every penny that he ever made

'Cause Mr Abrams can do what he wants to
But I may not come out alive
It's a long stretch of highway but you better not go
A mile over 45

He paved every road in the county
He owns all the land on both sides
But don't take your paycheck for freedom
'Cause that's when the two worlds collide

'Cause Mr Abrams can do what he wants to
But I may not come out alive
It's a long stretch of highway but you better not go
A mile over 45

Well each morning I stare down these crossroads
And count all the steps to the line
It don't take long to come to my senses
And put that shit outta my mind

'Cause Mr Abrams can do what he wants to
But I may not come out alive
It's a long stretch of highway but you better not go
A mile over 45
A mile over 45
