When I die, I wanna come back as a country boy No, there ain't no better life if you ask me If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead 'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be My back is always breakin', my dogs are always barkin' My money has trouble makin', and my truck has trouble startin' I'm up before the sun, either haulin' hay or huntin' My work ain't ever done but son, I wouldn't trade it for nothin' So when I die, I wanna come back as a country boy No, there ain't no better life if you ask me If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead 'Cause a country boy is all that I know how to be Yeah, if y'all ain't in my drawl, and a fish ain't on my wall And the whiskey don't burn goin' down My feet ain't in a holler, and blue ain't on my collar Leave my Hank-crankin', beer-drinkin' ass in the ground Yeah, when I die, I wanna come back as a country boy No, there ain't no better life if you ask me If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead 'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be When I die, I wanna come back as a country boy Live on this land, like my old man did before me I don't wanna be born into money Where the boots don't ever get muddy 'Cause a country boy's all that I know how to be When I die, I wanna come back as a country boy No, there ain't no better life if you ask me If my neck don't come out red, then Lord, just keep me dead 'Cause a country boy is all that I know how to be Yeah, a country boy is all that I know how to be

I looked into the eyes of a broken heart Pride that's made of stone! Why am I destroyed by love What made yourself so cold? Is it the darkness which covers yourself black? This isn't the girl I know who stabbed me in the back Facing you, your words like a gun One shot when you speak So pull the triggler and aim it at me I'm stuch in the middle of a cross fire Breaking me down is what you desire I wont let you So my soul will seek, inside of me My true self and what I believe What's to become of ourselves Has this love lost it's meaning? You showed me the way to love And I came about, then you stole my heart then left me! I'm waiting for the day to come that you'll save me! So my soul will seek, inside of me My true self and what I believe What's to become of ourselfs, has this love lost it's meaning? Pushed to the edge of this world, this is why I can't love! The moment I hope you'll come rescue me! I will fall in love with you Take me away with you Take me away with you! Suicide in my mind can't change I can't live without you!

Life's been quiet since you've been gone It's no fun burning for one I was happy before you came Now you've gone, it's just not the same Lord knows as hard as it is, as hard as it is They know just how hard it is Lord knows as hard as it is, as hard as it is He knows just how hard it is I missed you bad I want you now my darling It drives me mad, not now having you here Lord knows as hard as it is, as hard as it is They know just how hard it is Lord knows as hard as it is, as hard as it is He knows just how hard it is Lord knows hard as it is, as hard as it is He knows, he knows, he knows just how hard it is Here we do as His gives words I know, I know, I know, I know how much it hurts I do, I've been there too, I know Ah you must be [Incomprehensible]

1, 2, 3, 4 I saw an old man on the street He's in a dumpster looking for something to eat He moved so slow, like a dying dream Like a machinist who got caught in the machine I saw this lady and she was crying She said it's hard when someone you love is dying I saw this kid who's about five years old He was in the park all alone, he was cold There's something coming around As wicked as it may seem As wicked as anything could be As wicked as it may seem As wicked as anything could be I know this girl, she's barely alive She's all haggard, she's only twenty-five She said she never had a friend before I said, "Hey girl, I'll be your friend but who is keeping score?" I saw this other little girl on the phone Her mother's comforting her from far far from home The little girl's very hesitant Her best friend lie dead on the pavement There's something coming around As wicked as it may seem As wicked as anything could be As wicked as it may seem As wicked as anything could be Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah Yeah! I always end up back on the hill Looking down at the landfill I always go there when I can My friend Marty said, "Tim, you're a lucky man" There's something coming around As wicked as it may seem As wicked as anything could be As wicked as it may seem As wicked as anything could be

Well we sit in empty rooms and dream our lives away While the spirits come and go without a sound And just like you and me, they're tryin' to find a way, find a way, find a way home. There's a full moon in the sky, but that don't worry me I don't ever hang my soul out on the line When the witchin' hour comes, I always fly away, fly away, fly away home. There's a light in the city, that comes down from above Leavin' you as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove Don't blow your tomorrows, don't throw away your love You've got to be as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove. Now you once asked me why we can't communicate But it doesn't always pay to tell the truth If I told you right now, you'd only run away, run away, run away home So we sit in empty rooms and dream our lives away While the spirits come and go without a sound Yeah just like you and me, they're tryin' to find a way, find a way, find a way home. There's a light in the city, that comes down from above Leavin' you as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove Don't blow your tomorrows, don't throw away your love You've got to be as wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove.

We're sinking deeper No future, no hope They stole and shut off every spark that we owned Like vermins they're feeding on leeching and suffering Erasing what's left We're sinking deeper Deceiving their troopers into thinking theirs is the good fight is their specialty (No repentance) We're sinking again, approaching the end We're falling on our sword as it was any worth We're sinking again, our hopes have been slain We're falling on our sword as it was any worth We've come so far to repeat ourselves (Once again) Our species is slaughtering itself We are doomed We are doomed Deceived, blindfolded, betrayed (But yet we're holding on) We're sinking deeper No future, no hope They stole and shut off every spark that we owned Like vermins they're feeding on leeching and suffering Erasing what's left We're sinking again, approaching the end We're falling on our sword as it was any worth We're sinking again, our hopes have been slain We're falling on our sword as it was any worth (Approaching the end, our hopes have been slain We're sinking deeper) We are doomed Will you face your victims? (We are doomed) Every spark of humanity's gone Will you sing a victory (We are doomed) For destroying this world?
