I'm heading out of Alabama

So you'd better think fast

The wind's gonna pick me up now

And the rain won't stop

I'm heading down to Georgia

So don't lose track

Of where you been and where you going now

And who you've seen and what they lack

And why you come undone

Every time you go there

And how you come undone

I know your heart's in danger

And so is your life

You'd better learn to trust a stranger

And stop & rest for a night

See a sign up in the headlights

And a moon up above won't be enough

Light the embers of another and the night won't seem so rough

Sister....

There was a bloody beast of burden

On a dark Texas road

And a woman in a family way

And a car that lost control

I'm studying the distance

From the blanket to the gun

It's ten hours to Natchez

And another ten home

I know your heart's in danger

And so is your life

You'd better learn to trust a stranger

And stop & camp for the night

See a sign up in the headlights

And a moon up above

Light the embers of another

and the night won't seem so rough

Sister Go ahead Come on now

It was trust that brought me here

And trust will bring me home
