Black Water Rising Lyrics

Black water rising

Cold beer hiding

This buzz gonna send me to my grave

Running stop lights flying

My give a damn's broken

Don't care if it's my last day

Blue lights shining

But I won't stop running

I'll be damned if they gonna take me away

Got two pounds of contraband shoved up under the seat

Been runnin' for too damn long, I ain't ate nothin' in a week

Lawman thinks he gonna put me away

Pretty soon he's gonna see

If he can outrun what's under this hood then dead's how he's takin' me

Might not make it to tomorrow

That lawman's still chasin' me

Right now Jesus is the only one

That can set me free

Mashin' that pedal not lookin back

Got the Good Lord takin' the wheel

I ain't goin back to the pen

They won't give me that last meal

That river keeps gettin' higher

and it's only a matter of time

Before my life gets washed away

All because I

Got two pounds of contraband shoved up under the seat

Been runnin' for too damn long, I ain't ate nothin' in a week

Lawman thinks he gonna put me away

Pretty soon he's gonna see

If he can outrun what's under this hood then dead's how he's takin' me
