When the Dust Settles - Brent Cobb

Nowadays it’s a race to the top

You got one shot to make your mark

You can do what the whole crowd’s doin'

Or you can do what’s in your heart

Well there’s money if you win it

If your heart ain’t in it, well, it ain’t worth a dime

So get your tombstone ready and your suit 'n' tie steady

'Cause you might as well be dyin'

Cut all my wires, slash my tires

Throw my keys off of Slaughter Creek Bridge

If I get damned for givin' a damn, you can’t say I never did

But there’s too many jacked-up trucks in the way and this dirt track’s gettin'

old

When the dust settles, I’ll get on down the road

It’s a shame if the love for the game ain’t what the ride’s about no more

Well it’s nice to be number one, hell, that’s what we’re all here for

It ain’t doomed for somethin' that ain’t like nothin' nobody ever saw

If there isn’t, then forget it, you can have it, I’d rather not be known at all

Cut all my wires, slash my tires

Throw my keys off of Slaughter Creek Bridge

If I get damned for givin' a damn, you can’t say I never did

But there’s too many jacked-up trucks in the way and this dirt track’s gettin'

old

When the dust settles, I’ll get on down the road

Cut all my wires, slash my tires

Throw my keys off of Slaughter Creek Bridge

If I get damned for givin' a damn, you can’t say I never did

Well there’s too many jacked-up trucks in the way and this dirt track’s gettin'

old

When the dust settles, I’ll get on down the road

When the dust settles, I’ll get on down the road
