Lyrics

We Came Along This Road

[Verse 1] I left by the back door With my wife's lover's smoking gun I don't know what I was hoping for I hit the road at a run [Pre-Chorus] I was your lover And I was your man There never was no other I was your friend [Chorus] Till we came along this road Till we came along this road Till we came along this road [Instrumental Bridge] [Verse 2] I ain't sent you no letters, Ma But I'm looking quite a trip The world spinning beneath me, Ma Guns blazing at my hip [Pre-Chorus] You were my lover And You were my friend There never was no other Hope you understand [Chorus] Till we came along this road Till We came along this road Till We came along this road [Instrumental Outro]
