Lyrics
Out past the Silver City limits Darkest night you ever saw Ran down a man who had it comin’ Took his life and took off runnin’ West or East I don’t recall Breaker Breaker do you read me? Meet me just around the bend I’ll follow anywhere you lead me And we’ll ride this lonesome highway till it ends You be the one that Heaven sent me We’ll kill the headlights just in case I know a stretch of road so empty Breaker Breaker what’s your twenty? Is it written on my face? Breaker Breaker do you copy? Just the sound of someone’s voice They got me out here on the run for what I done You know they talk about it like I had a choice Now where I’m goin’ ain’t worth knowin’ Where I been just can’t begin To scratch the surface of my sins But when I hear you through the static Past the fever and the chills The problem’s not so problematic And I think maybe there’s a way where there’s a will So let them paint me in a corner Say I’m guilty of the crime I know a place below the border Where the whiskey pours like water And the water turns to wine Breaker Breaker do you read me? Yes I read you loud and clear! Out where the concrete meets the sky Just you and I And no one climbin’ up behind me in the mirror
