Lyrics
Words and music:amy ray
Sister I'm heading out of alabama so you better think fast The wind is gonna pick me up now and the rain won't slack I'm heading down to georgia so don't lose track Of where you've been and where you're going now, who you've seen and what they Lack And why you come undone Every time you go there You come undone
I know your heart's in danger And so is your life I said you learn to trust a stranger And stop and rest for the night Set your sight up in the headlight Well the moon won't be enough And light the embers of another And the night won't seem so rough Sister
There was a bloody beast of burden on a dark texas road (i wish I was a mother With a baby at my breast) A woman in the family way and a car that lost control (but I am just a poor Woman with a milk cow and a mess) I'm studying the distance between the blanket and the gun (i wish I was a mother With a baby at my breast I got ten hours to natchez and another ten home (but I am just a poor woman with A milk cow and a mess) Well I'm goin home
I know your heart's in danger And so is your life I say learn to trust a stranger And stop and rest for the night Set your sight up in the headlight The moon won't be enough And light the embers of another And the night won't seem so rough Sister Go ahead, I said come on Yeah
I said it's trust that brought me here
