lyrics

daddy taught her
bring a gun to a knife fight
the world is cold and god won't help
if you don't ask right
everybody's got a reason for pretending they're nice
and if you're starting to trust, y'oughtta look twice

but in the middle of the city in the light of the day
she saw the goodness of the people and the kids as they play
something told her to run
nothing told her to stay
she packed a bag, hopped a train
and she was well on her way

7:30 and the highway's spilling over the lines
the tank is empty and his wallet shows a sign of the times
forty-three, 2 degrees, and the mercedes benz
high roller coaster, always host, he plays the show for his friends
but in the middle of a meeting on the thirtieth floor
he starts to think that maybe life has something better in store
bids adieu to the suit
takes the globe for a spin
sets his course for the south
to start all over again

and he'll win
