I got turned around in some little town 00:13
I'd never been to before 00:16
Working my way through a middle-of-June 00:20
Midnight thunderstorm 00:24
There was something in the headlights 00:27
It stopped me on a dime 00:30
Well, she was scared to death, so I said 00:33
"Climb in," and then she climbed 00:37
Oh, yeah 00:40
00:45
Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe 00:47
With a tear in her blood-stained shirt 00:50
She didn't tell the whole truth, but she didn't have to 00:54
I knew what had happened to her 00:58
I didn't load her down with questions 01:01
That girl had been through enough 01:04
I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes 01:08
And I asked her where he was 01:11
I don't know if he's an angel 01:14
'Cause angels don't do what he did 01:18
He was hellbent to find the man behind 01:21
All the whiskey scars I hid 01:25
I never thought my day of justice 01:28
Would come from a judge under a seat 01:31
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again 01:35
When he said to me 01:39
"Wait in the truck 01:42
Just wait in the truck" 01:45
Well, I knocked and knocked and no one came 01:49
So I kicked in his double-wide door 01:52
I let the hammer drop before he got 01:56
To that 12 he was reaching for 01:59
I didn't try to hide my pistol 02:03
I didn't even try to run 02:06
I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes 02:09
And waited for the cops to come 02:13
I don't know if he's an angel 02:16
'Cause angels don't do what he did 02:20
He was hellbent to find the man behind 02:23
All the whiskey scars I hid 02:27
I never thought my day of justice 02:30
Would come from a judge under a seat 02:33
But I knew right then I'd never get hit again 02:37
When he said to me 02:41
"Wait in the truck 02:43
Just wait in the truck" 02:46
Whoa (whoa) 02:50
Have mercy on me, Lord 02:53
Have mercy on me 02:57
Have mercy on me (hey), Lord 03:00
It's been 60 months and she still comes 03:05
To see me from time to time 03:08
It was worth the price, to see a brighter side 03:11
Of the girl I picked up that night 03:15
And I might be here forever 03:18
It ain't paradise, that's true 03:21
But it's whole hell of a lot better 03:25
Than the place I sent him to, yeah 03:28
(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) 03:35
Wait in the truck (have mercy on me) 03:38
Just wait in the truck 03:41

Paroles:

[English]

I got turned around in some little town

I'd never been to before

Working my way through a middle-of-June

Midnight thunderstorm

There was something in the headlights

It stopped me on a dime

Well, she was scared to death, so I said

"Climb in," and then she climbed

Oh, yeah

...

Well, she was bruised and broke from head to toe

With a tear in her blood-stained shirt

She didn't tell the whole truth, but she didn't have to

I knew what had happened to her

I didn't load her down with questions

That girl had been through enough

I just threw it in drive, looked in those eyes

And I asked her where he was

I don't know if he's an angel

'Cause angels don't do what he did

He was hellbent to find the man behind

All the whiskey scars I hid

I never thought my day of justice

Would come from a judge under a seat

But I knew right then I'd never get hit again

When he said to me

"Wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck"

Well, I knocked and knocked and no one came

So I kicked in his double-wide door

I let the hammer drop before he got

To that 12 he was reaching for

I didn't try to hide my pistol

I didn't even try to run

I just sat on the porch, smoking one of his cigarettes

And waited for the cops to come

I don't know if he's an angel

'Cause angels don't do what he did

He was hellbent to find the man behind

All the whiskey scars I hid

I never thought my day of justice

Would come from a judge under a seat

But I knew right then I'd never get hit again

When he said to me

"Wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck"

Whoa (whoa)

Have mercy on me, Lord

Have mercy on me

Have mercy on me (hey), Lord

It's been 60 months and she still comes

To see me from time to time

It was worth the price, to see a brighter side

Of the girl I picked up that night

And I might be here forever

It ain't paradise, that's true

But it's whole hell of a lot better

Than the place I sent him to, yeah

(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me)

Wait in the truck (have mercy on me)

Just wait in the truck

(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me)

Wait in the truck (Lord, have mercy)

Just wait in the truck

(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) have mercy on me, Lord

Have mercy on me

(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) have mercy on me, Lord

Have mercy on me

(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck

(Have mercy, have mercy, have mercy on me) wait in the truck

Just wait in the truck (please have me mercy)

    ➔ Question Indirecte, Conditionnel (Type 0)

    ➔ Il s'agit d'une question indirecte utilisant "if" pour introduire la question. La phrase implique une déclaration conditionnelle - s'il est un ange, alors...

  • Would come from a judge under a seat
