[ Featuring The Wildes ]
Down the road the dogs are barking and those shadows creeping on
Down the road the dogs are barking and those shadows creeping on
These days are getting colder and these nights are getting long
There's moonlight on the highway and there's gravel at my feet
There's moonlight on the highway and there's gravel at my feet
By the time you hear the sirens there'll be no trace of me
She lives down out on the avenue at number 309
She lives down out on the avenue at number 309
She says what's the matter baby, you got something on your mind
Well now she's staring in the mirror and I'm laying on her bed
Well she's staring in the mirror and I'm laying in her bed
I said honey can I please just she says just please yourself instead
I can feel my heart a pounding like a distant hurricane
I can feel my heart a pounding like a distant hurricane
There's a storm on the horizon there's a bleedin in my brain
Now she turns just a moment and I'm reaching in her drawer
Well she turns just a moment and I'm reaching in her drawer
And I got one hand on her pistol, I got one eye on the door
And a shot ring's out at midnight baby's clutching at her side
A shot ring's out at midnight baby's clutching at her side
You know I don't wanna lose her but I hate to hear her cry
There's moonlight on the highway and there's gravel at my feet
There's moonlight on the highway and there's gravel at my feet
By the time you hear the sirens there'll be no trace of me
By the time you hear the sirens there'll be no trace of me
By the time you hear the sirens there will be no trace of me
