Rust on My Soul, Diesel in My Blood

I’ve bled through the years like an old machine, Worn down gears where hope once leaned. Dreams went broke, love turned to dust, But I keep rollin’ — ‘cause rollin’s a must.

The road don’t fix you, it don’t forgive… It just teaches a man how to live.

Rust on my soul, diesel in my blood, Built from the ashes, carved out of mud. I don’t shine, I don’t break, I just keep standin’ tough — Rust on my soul, diesel in my blood.

Scars like maps on my broken hands, Highways cut deeper than any man. I gave my youth to the blacktop flame, All I got left is the echo of my name.

The road don’t heal you, it just makes you numb… But hell, it taught me where I come from.

Rust on my soul, diesel in my blood, Burned by the storms, washed in the flood. I don’t beg, I don’t bow, I just keep ridin’ rough — Rust on my soul, diesel in my blood.

When the night gets colder than bone… And the miles feel like a grave of stone… I keep drivin’, ‘cause it’s all I know.

Rust on my soul, diesel in my blood, The highway’s my coffin, the sky’s my judge. I don’t shine, I don’t break, I just keep standin’ tough — Rust on my soul, diesel in my blood.
