Lyrics
Justified©brooks/moody
Closed the bar at 4:15
Put the gun in my car and left the glasses clean
Last drunks, frozen in their dreams
Been holding my breath for over a year
A car cut me off between there and here
Guess that mother couldn't steer
I saw red and I saw white
I did some things that weren't quite right
I saw red and I saw white
I wished I'd stayed at home that night
Streets were teeming with the midtown ghosts
We got outta our cars and shouted our oaths
About who had the most
First blows fell I was ready for more
I was dancing on that old trap door
Lord know it cause I been there before
I saw red and I saw white
I did some things that weren't quite right
I saw red and I saw white
I wished I'd stayed at home that night
Sounds of glass and the sound of my rights
Sounds that ended my heavyweight fights
At least I won't be working nights
I saw red and I saw white
I did some things that weren't quite right
I saw red and I saw white
I wished I'd stayed at home that night
