Spend enough time around
This nowhere small town
Sooner or later you're gonna see what kind of
Trouble can be found
And I was just sixteen
Feelin' ornery and mean
The Lord took two of my friends that year
And left me somewhere in between
And if I run outta that fool's luck
Oh, I'll come out alright
Just as long as you're here by my side
The only sense I can make
After all my mistakes
You were the reason the Lord saw fit to
Keep me safe
You see no thrill was enough
Oh, till I found your touch
To pull me from that path I was on
I just needed your love
And if I run outta that fool's luck
Oh, I'll come out alright
Just as long as you're here by my side
Close calls and close shaves
Barely pullin' out of scrapes
All the while thinkin' a cat couldn't scratch me
But I was just drunk not brave
After all, I went through
To finally bring me to you
Now all those wild years behind me
Well, they just sort of fade out of view
And if I run outta that fool's luck
Oh, I'll come out alright
Just as long as you're here by my side
And if I run outta that fool's luck
Oh, I'll come out alright
Just as long as you're here by my side
