I still see tailights in the dark
|
I still smell your perfume in the air
|
This is where a fool would fall apart
|
But i aint going there
|
|
Chorus:
|
Wont go down in a burst of flames
|
Wont stay locked up in your chains
|
Yeah, it hurts but it aint strong enough to whip me
|
I might stagger, i might fall
|
but i wont beg and i wont crawl
|
A tear or two might fall into my shot of whiskey
|
But i wont cry no Mississippi
|
|
Ther's no where to hide in this small town
|
I know our paths are bound to cross
|
I might stand on shakey ground
|
When I see what i lost but I
|
|
Chorus:
|
Wont go down in a burst of flames
|
Wont stay locked up in your chains
|
Yeah, it hurts but it aint strong enough to whip me
|
I might stagger, i might fall
|
but i wont beg and i wont crawl
|
A tear or two might fall into my shot of whiskey
|
But i wont cry no Mississippi
|
|
Bridge:
|
Hate to rain on your parade
|
Hate to make that bubble bust
|
Itll take more tears than you ciould make
|
to turn my heart into rust
|
