Nowhere Usa

The road was cold the fog was heavy Her headlights were just like a ghost She said, "You look innocent but I ain't crazy" I'm just too tired to drive on alone If you don't want me to shoot ya You'll keep both hands on that wheel She was sweet with just enough poison I wasn't sure just what to feel So I drove her into a sunrise In the middle of nowhere USA And she slept peaceful as a baby Once she put that .45 away When she woke up we talked bout livin' Where she was goin', where I had been I lit a smoke she talked bout Jesus How he had power to raise the dead We watched falling stars from her truck bed So I drove her into a sunrise In the middle of nowhere USA And she slept peaceful as a baby Once she put that .45 away So I drove her into a sunrise In the middle of nowhere USA And she slept peaceful as a baby Once she put that .45 away And we parked neath the burnin' sunrise And I held her against my chest She said I never would have shot ya I said I know, your gun it had no lead --- Nowhere USA - Dean Brody
