[ Featuring the High Rollers ]
I just need a little time
Sorry darlin' I don't care what's on your mind
Been down this worn out road too many times
I haven't hit my prime
21 and I still can't make a damn dime
Starting to think this mountain's too steep to climb
So I'm gonna save myself some heartache down the line
I'm going where the blue skies light up this beat up El Camino
And just try to forget what sent me on my way
Don't you know the sun still shines through the clouds of Amarillo
I'll wager my wallet and heart in the Lone Star State
Just to find me a life that pays
It's gonna be a while
Before I can look myself in the eyes
I guess I'm hoping to revive this part of me that's died
And I expect you to fight
Do what you want but don't ever call or write
Keep what's in the dark dark and what's in the light right
I try to tell everybody here that I'll be better off in a year
I'm going where the blue skies light up this beat up El Camino
Just try to forget what set me on my way
But don't you know the sun still shines through the clouds of Amarillo
I wager my wallet and heart in the Lone Star State
Just to find me a life that pays
But the sad truth is it won't get easier with time
I still see parts of you in me I can't shake or hide
I'm going where the blue skies light up this beat up El Camino
Just try to forget what set me on my way
I thought that I could try and change who you think I'll be tomorrow
But I guess there never really was anything I could say
To try and show you a life that pays
I'll try and show you a life that pays
