Fred Eaglesmith - Some Roads lyrics

rate me

I pull this blanket up over my shoulder

I stoke the fire

I check my gun again

There's the hounds a'baying

Up over the mountain

By the way they sound I can tell they've found my tracks again

There are some roads I wish I'd travelled

There are some trains I wish that I had rode

There are some bridges I wish I'd burned, Lord

There are some women I wish I'd never known

Last night I slept in some old holler

A muddy river rolled by my side

When I woke up I had a fever

For in the night I dreamt that I had died

There are some roads I wish I'd travelled

There are some trains I wish that I had rode

There are some bridges I wish I'd burned, Lord

There are some women I wish I'd never known

So I'm goin' back down off this mountain

I'm goin' to turn myself in today

She'll be cryin' by the scaffold

When the hangman calls out my name

There are some roads I wish I'd travelled

There are some trains I wish that I had rode

There are some women I did not know, Lord

And I wish now, she was one of them
