State Line Lyrics
by Cooder Graw
Intro:
Verse 1:
Old enough to fight the law
She got caught and chewed off her arm
Got a man twice her speed
Too much water on a bad seed
He made bail on a trumped up charge
Cops had made life too hard
So he pawned some things and quiet as a mouse
Broke her out of her parent??s house
They crossed the state line doing 95
Stayed in the It??ll Do Motel
Wanted by the law cause he skipped bail
And he tells her one more lie
Just before she starts to cry
If her daddy finds them
That boy??s gonna die
Verse 2:
Angry kid hooked on nicotine
Just like his dad in jail at eighteen
Now he??s twenty one and in love
With a girl who??s just a kid
And never seen the world
They get away, head up north somewhere
They got no money
But they don??t care
They just rob a place and get some money and clothes
And get some speed up her nose
Verse 3:
Run far enough you catch yourself
Run out of gas and you run like hell
Can??t outrun a police car
They locked them up and put them behind bars
Her parents came and took her back home
He??s up north and all alone
County food tastes like dirt
He hung himself with a county shirt
