Heathens Lyrics

Artist: Drive-By Truckers
Album: Decoration Day

Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me thereÅ a fit about to get thrown
If we get the van out of the ditch before morning ainÅ nobody got to know what I done
And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun
ItÅ the same old shit that I ainÅ gonna take off anyone.
And I donÅ need to be forgiven by them people in the neighborhood
When we first hooked up, you looked me in the eye
and said ?Å¡aw, we just ainÅ no good

We were Heathens in their eyes at the time, I guess I am just a Heathen still
and I never have repented from the wrongs that they say I have done
I done what I feel.

It was a difficult delivery, now itÅ growing up mean and strong
When you tell me that itÅ getting a little bit tight, ainÅ the first time I been outgrown
And IÅ gonna push a little harder
She ainÅ revved till the rods are thrown
I â€ â‚¬l walk away

And I donÅ need to be forsaken by you or anybody else
and I never had a shortage of people tryinto warn me about the dangers I pose to myself.
Heathens.

These times can take their toll sometimes and I know you feel the same way too
It gets so hard to keep between the ditches
when the roads wind the way they do.
