0:13Those neon lights on broadway
0:17Don't shine as bright as you think
0:20Hell done played the jukebox
0:23I drank the whiskey till my ears rang
0:26Been staying out past midnight
0:30Burning at both ends
0:33Waiting for a turn around or just
0:36Looking for a win
0:39It is a phone call from a long haul
0:43The dark side of the road
0:46Wasted till you're too far gone
0:49Hands off of the controls
0:52This way that I've been living
0:56Tearing down a dream
0:59Know it won't take too long to see
1:04Who I don't wanna be
1:12I got people praying 'bout me
1:15And praying don't come cheap
1:18That highway billboard sign says
1:22Jesus still loves me
1:25If I could get to town by Monday and fix
1:29Just what went wrong
1:31She might still be mine or she might
1:36Just move on
1:39And it'll be a phone call from a long haul
1:43The dark side of the road
1:46Wasted till you're too far gone
1:49Hands off of the controls
1:52This way that I've been living
1:56Tearing down a dream
1:59I know it won't take too long to see
2:04Who I don't wanna be
2:11No I don't wanna be
2:20Yeah
2:35And it'll be a phone call from a long haul
2:40Dark side of the road
2:43Wasted till you're too far gone
2:45Hands off of the controls
2:49And this way that I've been living
2:52Tearing down a dream
2:55I know it won't take too long to see
2:59Who I don't wanna be
3:07Who I don't wanna be
3:13It won't take long to see
Those neon lights on broadway Don't shine as bright as you think Hell done played the jukebox I drank the whiskey till my ears rang Been staying out past midnight Burning at both ends Waiting for a turn around or just Looking for a win It is a phone call from a long haul The dark side of the road Wasted till you're too far gone Hands off of the controls This way that I've been living Tearing down a dream Know it won't take too long to see Who I don't wanna be I got people praying 'bout me And praying don't come cheap That highway billboard sign says Jesus still loves me If I could get to town by Monday and fix Just what went wrong She might still be mine or she might Just move on And it'll be a phone call from a long haul The dark side of the road Wasted till you're too far gone Hands off of the controls This way that I've been living Tearing down a dream I know it won't take too long to see Who I don't wanna be No I don't wanna be Yeah And it'll be a phone call from a long haul Dark side of the road Wasted till you're too far gone Hands off of the controls And this way that I've been living Tearing down a dream I know it won't take too long to see Who I don't wanna be Who I don't wanna be It won't take long to see
