Jason Eady: Mile Over 45

Mile Over 45 (Lyrics)

Gave half my life to the sawmill
Gave half my hand to the blade
That's all I have to show for
Every penny that he ever made
 
Chorus:
 
Mr. Abrams can do what he wants to
And I may not come out alive
It's a long stretch of highway but you better not go
A mile over 45
 
He paved every road in the county
He owns all the land on both sides
But don't take your paychecks for freedom
Cause that's when the two worlds collide
 
(Chorus)
 
Each morning I stare down the crossroads
And count all the steps to the line
It don't take long to come to my senses
And put those thoughts out of my mind
 
(Chorus)
