Dust Down A Country Road Lyrics

Dust Down A Country Road lyrics

Could not get to sleep 

It was on my wedding night 

I was tangled in the sheets 

And I was dreaming of a light 

Pouring from her window 

Coming up through the floor 

Lifting up the darkness 

Crashing through my kitchen door 



Down to that old oak table 

I went to take a look 

And my whole life flashed before me 

Just like a story book 

She used to make me breakfast 

Or sit around and talk 

Have another cup of coffee 

Or maybe take a little walk 



CHORUS: 

Dust down a country road 

Blowing int he wind 

Behind an old truck load 

Up before the rooster crowed 

There's an old dog staring 

At the dust down a country road 



And that truck is going somewhere 

I just can't be sure 

When tomorrow's just the day 

After all that's gone before 

And I always thought of leaving 

I never could stay too long 

Now her memory's catching up 

And our sweet dreams are all gone 



REPEAT CHORUS 



If I had a bullet I'd put it in this gun 

And I'd catch that old dog napping 

And I'd shoot him before he runs 

Cause he ain't much good for nothin' 

Except staring at the dust 

Lord I wonder what he's looking at 

Sneaking up on us 



REPEAT CHORUS
