down by the racetrack waiting with their signs
the ugly broken people got no place to go
and a guilty boy scout with his conscience in his hand
buys some reconciliation
[Pre-Chorus]
aint going to be me, no, thinking
aint going to be me, no, thinking
aint going to be me, no
only 29 years left on my loan
[Chorus]
you stand there freezing on the side of the road
to remind me of all the good things that i‘m so glad i own
the only reason i leave you in the cold
is if i took you home to feed you, you‘d be somebody i know
and on the corner you tell me the same old lies
like i believe you gas can guy
every single dollar that i gave you and you drank
how many gallons are in your tank
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
the only reason i leave you in the cold.
