When The Sky Turns
To Red

| I was out riding in my car and
the sun was sinking and the sky turned all red. Blood red.
It was amazing. It was the first time I ever understood what
Dylan meant with "Under The Red Sky". It went from
a blues lyric to this trucking song with a beat we stole from
a Hank Shizzoe song. Don't tell Hank. |

I've been keepin' my both hands
on the wheel
Feelin' just about as strong as a grown man could feel
I've been keepin' my eyes on the road
I've been getting along through rain or shine, wind and snow
But there's evil up ahead
When the sky turns to red
And I've been makin' good time
I've been countin' the miles keepin' you off of my mind
But the hardest time is the twilight
Them wee little hours 'tween the day and the night
There's evil up ahead
When the sky turns to red
When the sky is blue
I wouldn't dream of thinkin' 'bout you
And in the darkest night
You're the furthest thing from my mind
But your lips are the color of the sunset
When the sky turns to red
Now I've been just as hard as a rock
I've been tough as nails, I do not miss what I ain't got
Now every mile brings me closer to you
Lord knows what's gonna happen before this run is through
There's evil up ahead
When the sky turns to red
When the sky is blue
It's kinda like your eyes so cruel
And when the night is pitch dark
It reminds me of your cold cold heart
But your lips are the color of the sunset
When the sky turns to red
That's why there's evil up ahead
When the sky turns to red
