Steve Earle - The Other Kind lyrics
[Steve Earle - The Other Kind lyrics]
And I took a look around at all that I got
These days I've been looking in the mirror
And wondering if that's me
Looking back or not
I'm still the apple of my mama's eye
I'm my daddy's worst fears realized
Here of late, all this real estate
Don't seem all that real to me sometimes
I'm back out on that road again
Turn this beast into the wind
There are those that break and bend
I'm the other kind, I'm the other kind
Now my old buddy, what's his name?
Says, "Man
What the hell are you thinking about?
Fool, you got two of everything
But, you hang your head just like
You was down and out"
And I'm damn sure not suffering
From a lack of love
There's plenty more where that came from
Ah, but leave it up to
Me to say something wrong
And hurt someone before I'm done
I'm back out on that road again
Turn this beast into the wind
There are those that break and bend
I'm the other kind
Back out on that road again
Turn this beast into the wind
There are those that break and bend
I'm the other kind, I'm the other kind
You see it used to be I was really free
I didn't need no gasoline to run
Before you could say, "Jack Kerouac"
You'd turn your back and I'd be gone
Yeah but nowadays I got me two good wheels
And I'll seek refuge in aluminum and steel
Ah, it takes me out there
For just a little while
And the years fall away with every mile
I'm back out on that road again
Turn this beast into the wind
There are those that break and bend
I'm the other kind
Back out on that road again
Turn this beast into the wind
There are those that break
And those that bend
I'm the other kind, I'm the other kind
I'm the other kind, I'm the other kind
