lyrics

Hey Friend – Why’re you here tonight?
I should be working a late night shift up at Harlan Light
Hey Friend – That should come as no surprise
You’re the one that I was covering for – when you asked me last Friday night

Hey Friend – What’d you have in mind?
We’ve been running ‘round since kids, but there’s a fine line
Hey Friend – I’d give my life for yours
If you’re here for my woman, son – I’ll drop you with no remorse

You better think about the afterlife – if you’re gonna make a stand
You can see that we’re together, Son – I ain’t forcing her hand
One more step and I will send you to the promised land

Hey Friend – How’s this going to play?
You can crawl back to your truck and live another day
But Friend – If I ask you one more time
I’m coming at you with a 2-by-4
And beat your ass across the county line
