I’ve been running through the blinding rain
Travelled on the back of a steel line train
and now I have the law coming down on me
I only have myself to blame
Your crooked smile made you lie through your teeth
so I helped you down 6 feet deep
I held the shovel, I knew I was in trouble
but love can make the strongest man weak
CHORUS
I’ve rolled through life like a tumbleweed
and I bring shame to my family
when I raised hell to save myself
the devil came and kissed me in my sleep
Well I know I’m walking down a broken line
since I loaded that forty five to ease my broken mind
if love hadn’t made me track him down
I wouldn’t be running for my life
CHORUS
I’ve rolled through life like a tumbleweed
and I bring shame to my family
when I raised hell to save myself
the devil came and kissed me in my sleep
if they lock me behind bars and throw away the key
it’s all because love took a hold of me
I never meant to do what I have done
but the devil went and kissed me in my sleep
