John Hiatt - Like A Freight Train lyrics

Keep an eye on my blind spots There's too many Keep lookin' for some light But there isn't any Was top dead center, baby Now my motor's gone soft I used to roll through here like a freight train But my wheels come off Got the ring my sister gave me Said it was my mom's The day she died of cancer I stole her morphine and gone Oh, I lived like a lion in Nashville For a couple more years I used to roll through here like a freight train But I slipped my gears Oh, I paid a price for everything You can't play it down They'll kick you off an empty boxcar And leave you in this town I only want the best for you I pa**ed it somewhere along the way I used to roll through here like a freight train Baby, what can I say? I had sunshine in my kitchen bu*ter on my toast Coffee brewed up in a lovin' cup In the presence of the Holy Ghost But I just kept comin' and goin' Yeah, you couldn't stop cryin' Used to roll through here like a freight train Must've been outta my mind Don't think you never got to me Oh baby, you really did Your love is all I ever think of Hurts to keep it hid But I'm not foolin' anybody Only myself for a while I used to roll through here like a freight train I used to make you smile
