  • Well, damnit, Randy, did you ever hear me at all?
    You were standin' bone dry in the middle of a waterfall
    You were livin' in the dark, but you couldn't see the light of day
    We were picture perfect, but you couldn't put it in a frame

    Yeah, now that I made it to the other side
    I hope you're countin' singles in your double wide
    Smokin' cigarettes like they're goin' out of style
    Turnin' me up on your radio dial
    You gave up 'til the very last minute
    Now that I'm gone I've got your attention

    I was flyin' a kite in the middle of a hurricane
    Tied to the tracks like a penny waitin' on a train
    You were lookin' for something that you'd already missed
    Well, damnit, Randy there's some things that you can't fix

    Yeah, now that I made it to the other side
    I hope you're countin' singles in your double wide
    Smokin' cigarettes like they're goin' out of style
    Turnin' me up on your radio dial
    You gave up 'til the very last minute
    Now that I'm gone I've got your attention

    I'm a rearview rolling off the map from Tennessee
    Well, lightnin' in a bottle ain't what it used to be

    Yeah, now that I made it to the other side
    I hope you're countin' singles in your double wide
    Smokin' cigarettes like they're goin' out of style
    Turnin' me up on your radio dial
    You gave up 'til the very last minute
    Now that I'm gone I've got your attention

    And a man might call it a woman on a mission
    Now that I'm gone I've got your attention
