Burn It Down

I’m on borrowed time I ain’t givin’ back

I’m a rusty pickup truck on the railroad tracks

You better count your blessings while you can

You’re gonna wake up in the morning a wanted man

Got a hundred pounds of this dynamite

Gonna light it up like Christmas in the dead of night

This old engine’s humming just like a top

Drivin’ on the edge of nothing with the headlights off

CHORUS

Listen harder now, you can hear the sound

Of that Colorado rolling free

That wheel just keeps on turnin’ round

And if you burn it down, it’s all right by me

If you think you’re winning, better think again

I’ll be fighting full of crazy to the bitter end

I’m a lone wolf running with the pack behind

An unofficial state militia with one thing in mind

Gonna drain it right back to the mud

There ain’t nothing in your Bible like a desert flood

It’ll set you back about a century

When the river was a beautiful calamity

BRIDGE

Let it go under

Let it go under

Let it go, let it go, let it go
