The Knot Comes Untied
(sam hogin/ron harbin/ed hill)
Shes a got a rand mcally map
And a tank full of gasoline
Yeah loves been headin south
And now shes heading out of new orleans
She throws her last picture out the window near the louisiana line
Shes somewhere between dreaming and leaving old feelings behind
As the knot comes untied
Her heart is running scared
Shes says a silent prayer
Lord im counting on you to help me get through this night
Theres memories like mountains and each one gets hard to climb
As the knot comes untied
On one hand she wonders if what she is doing is wrong
Cause it sure is a long stretch of highway between goin and gone
Shes been down this road a thousand times in her mind
But whats done is done
She wont turn around this time
As the knot comes untied
Her heart is running scared
Shes says a silent prayer
Lord im counting on you to help me get through this night
Theres memories like mountains and each one gets hard to climb
As the knot comes untied
Shes got rand mcally map
And a tank full of gasoline
