Drive-by Truckers Heathens Lyrics

Heathens Lyrics

Something about the wrinkle in your forehead tells me there? a fit about to get
thrown 



If we get the van out of the ditch before morning ain? nobody got to know what
I done 



And I never hear a single word you say when you tell me not to have my fun 



It? the same old shit that I ain? gonna take off anyone. 



And I don? need to be forgiven by them people in the neighborhood 



When we first hooked up, you looked me in the eye 



and said ?aw, we just ain? no good 







We were Heathens in their eyes at the time, I guess I am just a Heathen still




and I never have repented from the wrongs that they say I have done 



I done what I feel. 







It was a difficult delivery, now it? growing up mean and strong 



When you tell me that it? getting a little bit tight, ain? the first time I
been outgrown 



And I? gonna push a little harder 



She ain? revved till the rods are thrown 



I ?l walk away 







And I don? need to be forsaken by you or anybody else 



and I never had a shortage of people tryinto warn me about the dangers I pose
to myself. 



Heathens. 







These times can take their toll sometimes and I know you feel the same way too




It gets so hard to keep between the ditches 



when the roads wind the way they do.
