Tie Me Down

I've dodged the flame of love, my heart's been slippery and cold

I always thought I'd walk this path, least until I was almost old

Those sweet lips and eyes of green cut me like a blade of steel

Pulled my heart like a 18 wheel running up on Tennessee hill

I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touched the ground

She was the only one that ever could tie me down

Free life I left behind, strapped it to an angel's wings

Bounded to a new born love, tied up in her apron strings

I used to live alone, I never needed anyone

And she turned my head around, I didn't even try to run

Yeah, I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touched the ground

She was the only one that ever could tie me down, yeah

Lookin' back I realise happy is not what I was

When you run across a woman

It's your true love that's stronger than a moonshine buzz

Yeah, I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touched the ground

She was the only one that ever could tie me down

Yeah, I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touched the ground

She was the only one that ever could slow me down

Yeah, she was the only one that ever could tie me down
