One night in Kansas City after we had played the show |
|
Shots rang out as I stumbled home |
|
So I hid behind a dumpster in an alley down the street |
|
I didn't want to know if they were shooting at me |
|
Next morning in the paper read a man had lost his life |
|
Twenty feet away from me but I got out alive |
|
I learned more from these cities than I ever did in class |
|
And I stand accused of living way to fast |
|
Out here on this highway one thing stays the same |
|
It's gonna find me trouble knows my name |
|
At four in the morning in the city of New Orleans |
|
The tables got my money even though my friends had warned me |
|
So I hopped in the taxi, we headed down Canal |
|
By the time we got back to the bus it had already gone down |
|
It was a bucket full of concrete through our window |
|
We were getting robbed but the cops they never showed |
|
I learned more from these cities than I ever did in class |
|
And I stand accused of living way to fast |
|
Out here on this highway one thing stays the same |
|
It's gonna find me trouble knows my name |
|
No I wouldn't want it any other way |
|
Not knowing what might happen today, ain't that a shame |
|
In Missoula Montana we were out on tour |
|
With country music's brightest star that we knew for sure |
|
And I won't say what we did but one of us went too far |
|
Got picked up by the police after we all left the bar |
|
That next morning we looked everywhere |
|
Bout the time we hit the stage he'd barely posted bail |
|
I learned more from these cities than I ever did in class |
|
And I've seen the world through the bottom of the glass |
|
Out here on this highway one thing stays the same |
|
It's gonna find me trouble knows my name |
|
Yeah It's gonna find me trouble knows my name |
