Chipping Mill Songtext
von Turnpike Troubadours

Ran my heart through a chipping mill
Sold my soul for rock ′n' roll
Gave away all that I could steal
But I always kept the best for you
I always kept the best for you

Drank my way through a hurricane
Thinking ′bout your wedding ring
Done a lot of real dumb things
But I always kept the best for you
I always kept the best for you


Well, I should've seen it from million miles away
We are star dust brought to life
None of us were meant to stay
One thing about it
I'll meet you at the gate
I always kept the best for you
I always kept the best for you

There′s a moment when time stands still
Day breaks at the top of the hill
Back-strap from the morning kill
I always kept the best for you
I always kept the best for you

Lines got distorted
But the message is the same
We were howling at a ghost without a name
Despite what′s reported
My love for you remains
I always kept the best for you
I always kept the best for you

Well, I ran my heart through a chipping mill
Sold my soul for rock 'n′ roll
Gave away all that I could steal
I always kept the best for you
