Cloud of Dust (featuring Rick Huckaby)

It's hard to leave town like Jesse James
On a long flat piece of interstate
When the only thing underneath your wheels
Is concrete and Pittsburgh steel
That two-lane road sure can get you gone
But it don't do a thing to hide where you come from

I wish I could've left in a cloud of dust
On an old dirt road, really kick it up
Like a hell-bent desperado headin' west
Yeah there wouldn't be no lookin back
Even if I could I wouldn't have
This clear view in the rear view
Of losin' everything I'd ever loved
I wish I could've left in a cloud of dust

Them old cowboys had it made
But they don't make goodbyes like that these days
Yeah one wrong look next thing you know
You have to watch her watch him go
Only one thing worse than words I can't unsay
It's that picture in my mind I can't erase

I wish I could've left in a cloud of dust
On an old dirt road really kick it up
Like a hell bent desperado headin' west
There wouldn't be no lookin' back
Even if I could I wouldn't have
This clear view in the rear view
Of losin' every thing I'd ever loved
I wish I could've left in a cloud of dust

There wouldn't be no lookin' back
Even if I could I wouldn't have
This clear view in the rear view
Of losin' everything I'd ever loved
I wish I could've left in a cloud of dust
I wish I could've left
In a cloud of dust
I wish I could've left
