no I ain't been drinking well not that much
it's these road weary eyes that don't close at night
and your ghost hanging round outside the stage lights

They're the blackness of the highway
when you're all alone at night

and ghosts in the taillights

And I'm too damn young to be seeing the man I see
when I look into mirrors I'm scared of what I'll be
if I took down the shades and let in the light
I'd be a different kind of man one you might not like

Gonna get a long black car to ride through town
lights in the front and lights all around
sunglasses on my eyes and blood in my mouth
if the devil's in georgia I'm headed south

And I'm too damn young to be seeing the man I see
when I look into mirrors I'm scared of what I'll be
if I took down the shades and let in the light
I'd be a different kind of man one you might not like
