Crosses Lyrics

Stopping for gasoline I jump back in my truck again Roaring through the desert South of Magdalena The heat seeps into my skin Whenever I get too terribly giddy I see crosses On the side of the road Rattlesnakes eager to meet me Cactus thirsty for blood I sip on a bottle of Coke And roll my tobacco My windshield's the gravestone For a million dead bugs From the corner of my eye I keep seeing Them crosses On the side of the road Keep my eyes wide open And my blood running strong in my veins Please let me see my baby again Things crawling and dying Wind blowing Everything just surviving Last cloud through here Came and went months ago Flowers of yellow and purple They can mesmerize you Keep your eyes open And lock all of your doors I hope that you'll Be careful wherever you go I keep seeing crosses On the side of the road Them crosses On the side of the road
