Michigan

Well the heat was up when I hit the road

They were rakin’ me right on the coals

I was busted up, I was broken down

I was leaving like I never loved this town

It’s hard to keep it straight when you’re lookin’ back

There were times I went right off the track

With your memory running through my mind

And the trouble waitin’ on the other side

CHORUS

Now I don’t know how I ever got this far

With no one drivin’ that getaway car

And they’re linin’ up just to turn me in

It’s a losing hand, even if you win

Missing you up in Michigan

Now these hands of mine, they’re too cold to pray

For another ending or a better way

The days are short, and the nights don’t end

And I’m givin’ up on going back again

Someday I know when my time is up

And there’s no use drinkin’ from an empty cup

I’m gonna walk right out into the snow

Let the fires warm me when I’m down below
