Asheville Lyrics
The air was cold that morning and the coffee tasted black
He said play us a song, you're a first here, and I don't think it's too much to ask
But lonely and scared he declined here. Said maybe on my way back
But I've got mountains to cross before moonshine, and already a weight on my back
He tiptoed stumbling across at a heartbreaking speed
Passed the parking lot on to the highway
And to mumble one's thoughts is a heartbreaking deed
Maybe just one of you could go my way
He closed his eyes on the side of a church, right side of Tennessee
But never slept that well next to strangers, anyway
Waved goodbye to the footpath, colder now than he had grown to believe
One more cigarette to chase these night fears away
Yes, you can take me home, but I will not buy you dinner
Well, I better head back now, lack of sleep has caused my blood to grow thinner

And these mountain roads can be quite treacherous
Step back sir - I may be small, but I can put up quite a fuss right now
I hate this part of town. When every shop's closed down. I hate this part of town
