(david lee murphy)

Theres a shutter hangin from a window pane
The paints a crackin from the sun and the rain
I just quit carin cause Im all alone
My woman left me in a broken home with

High weeds and rust
Up around my truck
With a broken heart
In an inch of dust
Well Ive seen it all
Boom turn to bust
And Im bout to drown
In high weeds and rust

Well theres a tractor sittin in an empty field
I swore I wouldnt do nothin til my heart had healed
My friends say son get her off your mind
But when the bank comes lookin for me all theyll find is

High weeds and rust
Up around my truck
With a broken heart
In an inch of dust
Well Ive seen it all
Boom turn to bust
And Im bout to drown
In high weeds and rust

Well black birds sittin on the telephone line
Watchin me layin around wastin time
Never thought I could sink so low
I cant believe I just let it go to

High weeds and rust
Up around my truck
With a broken heart
In an inch of dust
Well Ive seen it all
Boom turn to bust
And Im bout to drown
