Civilized Hell (Alternate Version)

Lyrics

Well she's been runnin' for a mighty long time
Cuttin' fences and snappin' lines
She's growin' on me
I hope that she don't go
Wind blowin' on me
I feel my fire grow
She's a rebel and I like her
It don't take much to make her yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' she don't die in a civilized hell
A good friend told me not long ago
Said, "Change is rainin' and I'm ready to roll"
So I took him down
Through the canyon walls
I told him, "Here we row
When the river calls"
She's a rebel and I like it
It don't take much to make her yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' she don't die in a civilized hell
Saw an old lady with a twinkle-eyed grin
Settin' fire to a billboard with a song in her head
I heard her cry out loud
Happy she's alive
And the stars will shine
As the fire dies
She's a rebel and I like her
It don't take much to make her yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' she don't die in a civilized hell
In a civilized hell
I ain't leavin' this road I know
I ain't done fightin' for the freedom I chose
Can't put a rope on me
You can't shoot me down
I listen to my heart
And hear the river sound
I'm a rebel and I like it
It don't take much to make me yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' I don't die in a civilized hell
She's a rebel and I like it
It don't take much to make her yell
And I draw cold water from a wishing well
Hopin' she don't die in a civilized hell
I hope that I don't die in a civilized hell
Oh, a civilized hell
In a civilized—
Hahahaha, that felt good (Hahaha)
Ah, let's do one more, just like that (Yeah)
Yeah
