Got just enough sun to light my way
Just enough cloud to give me shade
Over my slow-down parade
One-man band at the barricade
One last stand of make believe
One good memory I can retrieve
One more devil that I will deceive
One less reason that Iâ??d rather leave
Unblindfold the referee
Donâ??t ask the wind what became of me
I tend to stray from the pedigree
Left off my sentence in Tennessee
Need more strength, so Iâ??m not afraid
Need a scale, legal for trade
A length of rope with a tighter braid
Enough of a crowd so I can still get paid
A tailored suit that wonâ??t go to trial
Bring your regrets, put them on the pile
Trust these mountains to be here awhile
Lend me your shoes, Iâ??ll walk a mile
In the indictment I wasnâ??t named
Though you know Iâ??ll get the blame
I lost the ticket that wasnâ??t claimed
Iâ??m still here and Iâ??m not ashamed
Over here
Over here
My eyes are shot
But my visionâ??s clear
With just enough sun to light my way
Just enough cloud to give me shade
Over my slow-down parade
One-man band at the barricade
One-man band at the barricade
