Jack Loved Jesse

(альбом: Little Victories - 2012)

Red eyed and wasted rolling into Memphis
Jack said to Jesse I don't think I can handle this
The slamming in his ears was his own heartbeat
A .38 tucked under the seat
Jessie said Jack this ain't no fooling around
If we screw up now they're gonna take us down

Jack loved Jesse like a runaway train
He knew she was crazy but he loved her just the same
It felt like dancing on the edge of a knife
Jack loved Jesse for the rest of his life

Trunk full of Menifee county homegrown
Ten thousand dollars if they bring it on home
But Jess shot it to hell back in Jackson town
The Tennessee trooper on the ground
Jesse said if we could make Arkansas
We got us a chance to outrun the law

Jack loved Jesse like a runaway train
He knew she was crazy but he loved her just the same
It felt like dancing on the edge of a knife
Jack loved Jesse for the rest of his life

Memphis rolled by like a dream in the night
At the Mississippi bridge they could see daylight
Two unmarked cars falling in behind
Jesse said Jack it's the end of the line
Matt black Fords blocking all four lanes
If we're going down we're going down in flames

Jack loved Jesse like a runaway train
He knew she was crazy but he loved her just the same
It felt like dancing on the edge of a knife
Jack loved Jesse for the rest of his life
Jack loved Jesse for the rest of his life
Jack loved Jesse
Jack loved Jesse
