309

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
