Lyrics

Indiana Alibi - Tburns + Eric Hester

I'm not afraid of the long dark road, I'm not afraid of the cold
I'm not afraid of the icy winds, that will follow me to heaven when I go
I keep a little something underneath my arm,
cause I don't like those boys who roam the town
I'm not afraid of what they'll do, it's more like the other way around

I wasn't there for the opening, I wasn't there for the close
I wasn't there when they brought you in, to tell us things we didn't want to know
I wonder what will happen when we reach the end,
while we're waiting for the orchestra to fold
I wasn't there when the sun went down, so I couldn't of been there when it rose

The preacher may not know it, but there ain't nobody listening to this radio
This highway's long and lonesome and crumbling round me like the walls of jericho

I couldn't be sure about the money. I couldn't be sure about the time
I couldn't be sure if it was legal, or if any of it constitutes a crime
I drove to Indiana in a black sedan, to meet a man I didn't even know
I couldn't be sure how long I waited, but when morning came I knew he wouldn't show

the preacher may not know it, there ain't nobody listening to this radio
And this highway's long and lonesome and crumbling round me like the walls of jericho

I'm not afraid of the long dark road, I'm not afraid of the cold
I'm not afraid of the icy winds, that will follow me to heaven when I go
