Lyrics

[Verse 1] What makes a man think that he Can forget about what used to be Be happy with the way life is Not think about what once was his? Whiskey drunk and under the gun I'm takin' me a midnight run [Chorus] I'm takin' me a midnight run I'm makin' another one A thousand miles or more I'll drive To where I lived when I thought I was alive They'll never know I was ever around Just my shadow on the ground I turn east to face the sun After makin' me a midnight run [Verse 2] I tell you all 'cause you need to know They don't call for me to go I hear that voice coming 'cross the milеs I got no choice but to be gone a whilе I say get in, you better lock and load Don't let the wind block the road I'll be gone but when it's done I'm all alone on my midnight run [Chorus] I'm takin' me a midnight run I'm makin' another one A thousand miles or more I'll drive To where I lived when I thought I was alive They'll never know I was ever around Just my shadow on the ground I turn east to face the sun After makin' me a midnight run
