Late night on a back road and my ride had broken down
I see a light off in the distance a long long way from town
Half a mile later Im knockin on the door
She answered in her cut offs and my jaw just hit the floor
She said you look so cold, why not come inside?
I think I just struck gold(Chorus)
No way out, a voice in my head said you shouldve known better
No way out, its too good to believe
No way out, when morning came I wish I never wouldve met her
Now here comes daddy with a gun in hand
And I dont think hes gonna understandI take off through the front yard hear em pump that ole 12 gauge
She says daddy dont you shoot him, but dont let him get away
I run into the sheriff, hallelujah Ive been saved, he says:
Where you think youre goin son, we got plans for you today
She said get on your knees - think Im in trouble now
Youre gonna marry me - Ive gotta get away somehow
Cant go off in the night, cause poppas gun just might(Chorus)
No way out, a voice in my head said you shouldve known better
No way out, I can never leave
No way out, help me Lord I wish I never wouldve met her
And daddys sitting with a gun in hand
He said The preachers comin just as fast as he can
No way out, a voice in my head said you shouldve known better
No way out, ooooh, I was no nave
No way out, help me Lord I wish I never wouldve met her
A lesson learned and it goes to show
Dont break down on an old back road
