Nowhere USA - Dean Brody

The road was cold the fog was heavy

Her headlights were just like a ghost

She said you look innocent but I ain’t crazy

I’m just too tired to drive on alone

If you don’t want me to shoot ya

You’ll keep both hands on that wheel

She was sweet with just enough poison

I wasn’t sure just what to feel

So I drove her into a sunrise

In the middle of nowhere USA

And she slept peaceful as a baby

Once she put that .45 away

When she woke up we talked bout livin

Where she was goin, where I had been

I lit a smoke she talked bout Jesus

How he had power to raise the dead

We watched falling stars from her truckbed

So I drove her into a sunrise

In the middle of nowhere USA

And she slept peaceful as a baby

Once she put that .45 away

So I drove her into a sunrise

In the middle of nowhere USA

And she slept peaceful as a baby

Once she put that .45 away

And we parked neath the burnin sunrise

And I held her against my chest

She said I never would have shot ya

I said I know, your gun it had no lead
