Well Granddaddy said, Son don't let this world defeat ya
If you get knocked on the ground, you get back on your feet
And let them son's of bitches know, you won't lay down and die
They might beat ya once, but they won't whoop you everytime
Well I took his advice, and I did alot of thinking
I knew that I must apply it to my situation
Cause there are some that did me wrong, and now it's time for war
I fired that ol' engine up, I put that pedal to the floor
And my life is like an old car
Ragged and rusted out
It hurts to shop, but thats alright
I ain't turning around
The rear view mirror missin'
No lookin' back on dust
The only thing behind me now
Is Tail Lights And Dust
Well every thing we had, has now been torn to pieces
I've come to terms and I ain't losin' no more sleepin'
We were headed to the Moon until somebody lost it
Pissed all right down the drain in a hotel in Valdosta
And my life is like an old car
Ragged and rusted out
It hurts to shop, but thats alright
I ain't turning around
The rear view mirror missin'
No lookin' back on dust
The only thing behind me now
Is Tail Lights And Dust
Yeah, the only thing behind me now
Is Tail Lights And Dust
