Changin My Ways
[Verse 1]
Banged up like a cowboy who's been outbussed in Bronx
Went to war with the whiskey and a million honky-tonks
But no matter how I strayed, she always takes me in
She cleans me up and feeds me and sends me out again

[Verse 2]
Now the scars of the miles are finally showin' on my face
Thirty's in the rearview when fifty sets the pace
But she sees past my charm, straight down in my soul
Builds my grave with dirt, buries the pain in that hole

[Chorus]
But I'm changin' my ways this time
I gotta start walkin' the line
'Cause nothin' could ever replace
The smile on her face

[Verse 3]
I got one more lonesome bullet, it's the last round in my gun
Gotta clean myself up, watch some more settin' suns
But my finger's on the trigger and it's shakin' like a tree
Better put that pistol down, son, and set your mind free
[Chorus]
But I'm changin' my ways this time
I gotta start walkin' the line
'Cause nothin' could ever replace
The smile on her face
