Road To Hattiesburg

‎"Road To Hattiesburg" ~ RER

I pulled the nose out of tupelo
Headed down 45
In the darkness of the back roads
I never felt so damned alive

Picked up a tent revival
Only thing on the radio
Heard a dozen souls saved that night
On the road to Hattiesburg

Down that lonely parkway
Twixt the demons and the pines
I don't really care about what's ahead
Only know what I left behind

Never knew you as a dark angel
began to fear for my soul
read the writing on the wall in the back of my mind
packed my things and I hit the road

Tossed a cigarette out the window
Held the pedal to the floor
Don't you worry bout my sorry ass
Ill darken your door no more

Down lonely parkway
Twixt the demons and the pines
I Dont give a shit about whats ahead
I Only know what I left behind

Somewhere in the blackness
of that Mississippi Night
I burned your memory from my mind
no more heartache no more crying
