[Chorus]
Life s not where you leave it
Love s not gettin sane
If I told you I need it
I could be lyin all the same
[Verse]
I m 200 miles from Georgia, on that Mississippi line
It s the 2:15 to Livingston, so I got myself some time
From the hill across the rails, to as far as I can see
The only friends I got round here are the two boots on my feet
The ol boots on my feet
[Chorus]
Life s not where you leave it
Love s not gettin sane
If I told you I need it
I could be lyin all the same
[Verse]
As if these tracks were bright eternity
And my life lay stretched behind
I ll join those kings and senators in an ancient twistin line
If you sit yourself upon the throne, as if on my dyin day
Before you part your lips to speak, I got somethin to say
I got one thing to say
[Chorus]
Life s not where you leave it
Love s not gettin sane
If I told you I need it
I could be lyin all the same
