Whiskey River Redemption

I wake up each morning to the call of the crow And the weight of the world on my skin At his old truck sits rusted and still Memories fade like the paint on the barn I chase down the shadows that time The time can't fulfill Holding on tight to what's scarred in my heart These back roads whisper of love that we lost Nights by the fire, your hand in my own Hard times come calling like a wintertime frost Leaving me lonely out here on my own But I'll sing through the heartache let the petals still cry For the life that we dreamed meet that wide open sky Yeah, love and the hardship, they tangle and twist In this country, heart, forever they'll exist Rain don't come easy these days anymore Fools turn to cracked earth under sun-beaten blue By the creek on the shore By the creek on the shore How we'd dance in the moonlight, me and you Now the bottle's my companion Echoes of promise We could not run Fiddles and banjos play soft in the lights Reminding me freedom's a battle hard won Oh, these back roads whisper of love that we lost Nights by the fire, your hand in my own Hard times come calling like a wintertime frost Leaving me lonely out here on my own But I'll sing through the heartache let the petals still cry For the life that we dreamed meet that wide open sky Yeah, love and the hardship, they tangle and twist In this country, heart, forever they'll exist Maybe someday the clouds will break and pour down Wash away sorrow, bring you back round Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time Till then I'll keep plowing this road till the end of time
