Lyrics

[Verse 1] Remember when David dashed a twelve-pack Of Budweiser Heavy for the road? Two kids in the back, drunk off their ass Screamin' in an old Bronco [Chorus] I recall what she said That she wanted me dead There ain't no grave deep enough Remember all the nights we had I say it ain't so bad Keep those heavy eyes lookin' up [Verse 2] Remember when Mary brought her own Jane? Lucas thought he was gonna die 'Cause stars startеd fallin' out the night clouds From a clear, midwestеrn sky [Chorus] I recall what she said Screamin' that the sky was red It's burned into a younger man's mind Remember all the days we had I say it ain't so bad Keep those heavy eyes soft and kind [Refrain] Oh, when I'm old, I will recall All the nights we spent outlaws It's gettin' cold, that sun is crestin' And heavy eyes ain't born for restin' [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Who's gonna drive us home, my boys and me? Our walkin' staggered, vision blurred One thing you'll come to know, them boys back home Live for things like Dead Man's Curve [Chorus] And I recall what he said He'd rather be gone and dead Than livin' like those sad folks in town I can't take this soul with me If I go, I'm goin' quickly Keep those heavy eyes free and proud [Refrain] Oh, when I'm old, I will recall All the nights we spent outlaws It's gettin' cold, that sun is crestin' And heavy eyes ain't born for restin' [Instrumental Break] [Refrain] Oh, when I'm old, I will recall All the nights we spent outlaws It's gettin' cold, that sun is crestin' And heavy eyes ain't born for restin' [Break] Think you got, uh, one more in you, Red Rocks? Thank you guys so much for bearin' with us all night [Refrain] Oh, when I'm old, I will recall All the nights we spent outlaws It's gettin' cold, that sun is crestin' And heavy eyes ain't born for restin'
