BLACKBERRY SMOKE
"Let It Burn"
(Charlie Starr)

Well if I had a nickel
For every line this town put on my face
If I had a dime for every time
I said I was fixin' to leave this place
It would help me buy the gas
I'm about to pour on everything I see
I can't be sentimental when it don't mean nothin' to me

Let it burn
Burn, just let it burn
Well I'm sick of hangin' round here waitin' for the tide to turn
It don't matter if it's far or near
Just as long as I get outta here
Let it burn
Let it burn

I work too damn hard
To wind up in this shotgun shack
To get a little behind
And have a man come and take it back
They're all breathin' down my neck
Waitin' for me to fall
Well if it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all

Let it burn
Burn, mama let it burn
I can't wait to see 'em all when they ain't got nowhere to turn
I watch the flames light up the sky
Blow 'em a kiss as I wave goodbye
Yeah

Let it burn
Burn, just let it burn
Well I'm sick of hangin' round here waitin' for the tide to turn
Yeah even if I wanted to stay
They'd probably run me outta here anyway
Let it burn

Yeah!
