One Star Flag

(альбом: Double-Wide Dream - 2011)

Got ice in my veins and blood on my lips
and this look on my face like I don't give a shit
Everybody's acting like I'm the only one messed up
I'm staring down the barrel of a whiskey bottle
Got the hammer down and I can't find the throttle
I'm revved up red line looking for a place to go

And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home

I got nerves of steel with my head on the gate
and when I nod my head I'll be looking for it
When my heart beats pumping so hard I can't catch my breath
I hope that it blows and turns into my hand
and I'll make a move for the girls in the stand
and I'll be smiling with a choker while I'm holding up the buckle
We'll be taking it to the bar 'cause the drinks are on me

And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home

Well, if you think I'm easy, you're mistaking
This left hand will leave you shaking
I might bend, but I won't break
You can have what you can take
Come and get it, you'll regret it
Better just walk away

And I'm headed south like a freight train bound for Texas
There's a girl in Fort Worth who swears I'm on her mind
And she tells me the bed gets cold when she's all alone
And that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home

Yeah, that one star flag is waving like it's calling me home
