Son Of A Sinner Song Lyrics by Jelly Roll
I never get lonelyI get these ghosts to keep me companyI took the rearview off of this old FordSo I only see in front of me
Now the past is out of sight and out of mindSwore I changed, now I’m back chasing these white lines
I’m just a long-haired son of a sinnerSearching for new ways I can get goneI’m a pedal to the highwayIf you ever wonder why we write these songs
‘Cause I’m only one drink away from the devilI’m only one call away from homeYeah, I’m somewhere in the middleI guess I’m just a little right and wrong
These backroads got meThese pills pretend to be my friendI’m done for the last timeI’m lying to myself againI always say thatNow I’m on my way back here somehowI should know by now
I’m just a long-haired son of a sinnerSearching for new ways I can get goneI’m a pedal to the highwayIf you ever wonder why we write these songs
‘Cause I’m only one drink away from the devilI’m only one call away from homeYeah, I’m somewhere in the middleI guess I’m just a little right and wrong
Mistakes I made, I paid for them in cashWalked a million miles on broken glassI’m feeling like I’m fadingMy heart’s been slowly breaking
Might pop a pill and smoke and maybe drinkTalk to God and tell Him what I thinkAt first He’s gonna hate meBut eventually He’ll save me
I’m just a long-haired son of a sinnerSearching for new ways I can get goneI’m a pedal to the highwayIf you ever wonder why we write these songs
‘Cause I’m only one drink away from the devilI’m only one call away from homeYeah, I’m somewhere in the middleI guess I’m just a little right and wrong
