Sister Lyrics

Sister

sister i`m heading out of alabama
so you better think fast
the wind is gonna pick me up now
and the rain won`t slack
i`m heading down to georgia
so don`t lose track
of where you`ve been and where you`re going now
who you`ve seen and what they lack
and why you come undone
every time you go there
you come undone 

yeah
yeah 

i know your heart`s in danger
and so is your life
i said you learn to trust a stranger
and stop and rest for the night
set your sight up in the headlight
well the moon won`t be enough
(sister)
and light the embers of another
and the night won`t won`t seem so rough
sister 

ah
there was a bloody beast of burden
(i wish i was a mother)
on a dark texas road
(with a baby at my breast)
a woman in a family way
(i am just a farmer)
and a car that lost control
(with a milkcow and a mess)
i`m studying the distance
(i wish i was a mother)
between the blanket and the gun
(with a baby at my breast)
i got ten hours to natchez
(i am just a farmer)
and another ten home
(with a milkcow and a mess)
well i`m goin` home
yes 

i know your heart`s in danger
(sister)
and so is your life
(sister)
i say learn to trust a stranger
(learn to trust)
and stop and rest for the night
set your sight up in the headlight
yeah the moon won`t be enough
and light the embers of another
and the night won`t seem so rough
sister
go ahead
i said come on
ah oh yeah
ah oh yeah
ah oh yeah
ah oh yeah 

i said it`s trust that brought me here
and trust will bring me home
