Reverend Greensky Bluegrass

Couple beers with the reverend
Am I safe from the night?
More money to the system
Am I free from the fight?

I left myself behind in my home town
Went looking for a new place, you won't find me around

I made peace with my country
Though I never could believe
Somebody else's struggle
Is the reason that I flee

There's none that miss me, they never thought I'd go
So many things about me, nobody seems to know

[Chorus]
Can you carry more
If you leave me back?
What's left to take?
Who's lives come last?

I can find fewer reasons
Against the need to run
Than my hands to bear a burden
A weight I can't overcome
