Out Of The Ashes [2006] lyrics

You took the wrong road, baby

I tried to tell you all along

You took the wrong road, baby

I tried to tell you all along

We've hit the dead end, baby

Now, there's no road at all.

You can pick 'em, baby

You can pick 'em, baby

You can pick 'em, baby

But you know it's against the law.

There was the one from Memphis

There was that one from West L. A.

But the one from New Orleans

She tried to put you in your grave.

There was the one from Texas

Lord, she made you squirm

But the one from Arizona

Left you no soul at all.

You can pick 'em, baby

You can pick 'em, baby

You can pick 'em, baby

But you know it's against the law.

There's a rope hangin', baby

I'd like to slide you down

There's a rope hangin', baby

I'd like to slide you down

(I'd like to slide you down, baby)

Let's have a party, baby

Let's see who comes around.
