Dust Down a Country Road

Could not get to sleep It was on our wedding night I was tangled in the sheets I was dreaming of a light Pouring from her window Coming up through the floor Crashing through the darkness Through my kitchen door Down to that old oak table I went to take a look My whole life flashed before me Just like a story book Well, she used to make me breakfast Sit around and talk Another cup of coffee Or take a little walk Dust down a country road Blowing in the wind Behind an old truck load Up before the rooster crows There's an old dog staring At the dust down a country road And where that truck is going I just can't be sure When tomorrow's just the day After all that's gone before I used to think of leaving I never could stay too long Now her memory's catching up And our sweet dreams are all gone Dust down a country road Blowing in the wind Behind an old truck load Up before the rooster crows There's an old dog staring At the dust down a country road If I had a bullet I'd put it in this gun I'd catch that old dog napping And I'd shoot him before it runs Cause he ain't much good for nothin' Except staring at the dust I wonder what he's looking at Sneaking up on us Dust down a country road Blowing in the wind Behind an old truck load Up before the rooster crows There's an old dog staring At the dust Dust down a country road Blowing in the wind Behind an old truck load Up before the rooster crows There's an old dog staring At the dust down a country road There's an old dog staring At the dust down a country road
