This is the No Mercy Road, the asphalt smells like hate The devil’s riding in my shadow, laughing at my fate I see his headlights in the mist, he’s gaining on my tail He knows I traded in my soul to stay outside the jail The red dust of the borderland is blowing in my eyes... ...and every signpost on this road is telling wicked lies. OH, THERE’S BLOOD ON THE HIGHWAY AND CRACKS IN THE WIND! THERE AIN'T NO FORGIVENESS FOR THE WAY THAT I SINNED! THE DEVIL’S BEHIND ME, HE’S CLOSING THE TRACKS! AND THERE AIN'T NO WAY, AIN'T NO WAY BACK! NO WAY BACK TO TEXAS, THE BRIDGES ARE BURNED! THE WHEEL OF MY FORTUNE HAS FINALLY TURNED! The fuel is low, the engine knocks, the desert night is vast I know that every mile I make is gonna be my last I hear the sirens far away, or maybe it’s the hound... BUT THEY WILL NEVER CATCH ME ALIVE UPON THIS HOLY GROUND! OH, THERE’S BLOOD ON THE HIGHWAY AND CRACKS IN THE WIND! THERE AIN'T NO FORGIVENESS FOR THE WAY THAT I SINNED! THE DEVIL’S BEHIND ME, HE’S CLOSING THE TRACKS! AND THERE AIN'T NO WAY, AIN'T NO WAY BACK! NO WAY BACK TO TEXAS, THE BRIDGES ARE BURNED! Midnight highway... No mercy... No way back... to Texas. ---- #DarkCountryBlues #OutlawCountry #southerngothic #OutlawCountryRock #darkwestern dark country blues outlaw country rock southern gothic blues dark western music midnight highway song desert road blues outlaw western rock dark country road song Texas outlaw song no way back song lonely road song gritty western rock cinematic country blues dark americana gothic country highway blues
