Gate Won't Hold Me

一首粗粝的 Country Rock / Outlaw Country 男声歌。它从 @billyraycarterrecords 近期「Get out of my way」式的挡路叙事里取样气质，但旋律和歌词重新写成原创：夜班、链门、红土路、工钱和不肯低头的牛仔脾气。

[Intro] Boot heel on gravel, moon in the wire One hand on the wheel, one hand near the fire

[Verse 1] Clock punched midnight at the county line Diesel smoke hanging like a warning sign Chain-link rattles where the cold wind leans Boss man says I oughta quit my dreams

[Pre-Chorus] But my daddy's old jacket still smells like rain And it taught me how to stand in pain

[Chorus] That gate won't hold me That road still knows me If the whole town says I ain't worth a damn I'll burn my name in the red dirt, man That gate won't hold me I was born to run it open With a scar on my lip and a fist full of pay Tell the night to get outta my way

[Verse 2] Coffee gone bitter in a paper cup Two dead headlights on a tow-truck rut Mama said son, don't sell your spine For a clean white shirt and a borrowed shine

[Pre-Chorus] So I keep my boots muddy and my Bible thin Let the thunder know where I've been

[Chorus] That gate won't hold me That road still knows me If the whole town says I ain't worth a damn I'll burn my name in the red dirt, man That gate won't hold me I was born to run it open With a scar on my lip and a fist full of pay Tell the night to get outta my way

[Bridge] Drop the drums down low Let the slide guitar cry I ain't asking the lock I ain't asking the sky If mercy comes cheap You can keep your key I got both hands shaking But they're still on me

[Final Chorus] That gate won't hold me That road still knows me If the whole town says I ain't worth a damn I'll burn my name in the red dirt, man That gate won't hold me I was born to run it open With a scar on my lip and a fist full of pay Tell the night to get outta my way

[Outro] Boot heel on gravel, dawn in the wire Gate swinging wide in the smoke and fire
