BLUES HIGHWAY 61
Headed down Blues Highway 61
Shotgun seat full of demons
Looking for a soulless mate to play
Who won't let the words get in the way
He talked slow, he moved fast
He kissed her as if it was his last
He advertised his love was free
but sincerety was absentee
Just got caught up in the moment
Mixed up in his screwed up atonement
But he's in her rearview today
A memory gone astray
Headed down Blues Highway 61
Wide open - gonna catch the sun
Uncomplicated and baggage free
so sure now she holds the master key
He said Baby I'm sorry I hurt you
She said sweetie you never did follow through
You can't hurt someone who doesn't feel
You can't hurt someone when it isn't real
Never felt real. never felt right
she just happened to be in his sights
Just a long shot in the dark
shadow dancing without the spark
Headed down Blues Highway 61
eyes open for that perfect someone
whose demons play well with hers
and her hunger and passions can stir
She called his bluff, she shut him down
Admitted it's nice to have a man around
But wanting and needing are different things
and knowing that gave her her wings.
She watched the look that crossed his face
As he realized he had just been replaced
she doesn't need a man to make her whole
And damn sure not one out of control
Headed down Blues Highway 61
Never do miss it til it's gone
Her demons may still be with her
But his memory will soon be a blur
