Eric Church - A Man Who Was Gonna Die Young lyrics

I like fast cars in sharp dreams Chased a lot of crazy things Left behind my share of broken pieces This morning I turned 36 You just remember half of it You wonder how you outlived Hank or Jesus I put the rage in the river The roll in the thunder You kept me from going under When that current got to heavy I always thought I’d be a heap of metal In a cloud of smoke foot stuck to the pedal Sold for parts like a junkyard rusted out Chevy Fear I’ve had none What the hell made you want to love? A man who was gonna die young In the mirror I saw my surprise When the gray hairs like to hide On the head Didn’t think he’d live pa**ed 30 If I make it 30 more Just the brown that you’ll be looking for As you run your fingers through say slow down honey I put the rage in the river The roll in the thunder You kept me from going under When that current got to heavy I always thought I’d be a heap of metal In a cloud of smoke foot stuck to the pedal Sold for parts like a junkyard rusted out Chevy Fear I’ve had none What the hell made you want to love? A man who was gonna die young Call it intuition or call it crazy Just thought by now I’d be pushin’ up daisies But I’d gladly stick around if we’re together So baby when you bow your head tonight Could you tell the Lord I changed my mind And with you I’d like to live forever
