Coin For The Ferryman Lyrics - Nickelback

Flying down the highway like a bat out of hell 

My buddy Bradley's in the middle [?] he's lookin' out the window 

We just got high and hopin' no one could tell 

But with the icky and the sticky it don't matter where the wind blows 

Lighter in my hand and I got nothing to burn 

Except a little turpentine inside of those five paint cans 

Pick up a shotgun and we'll all take turns 

But don't you ever say a word cause you know momma's gonna hate that 

The dice that we've been rollin' 

Where our lives are bitter stolen 

When you're walking through the fire for fun 

Tidal wave in motion 

You can't hide from the explosion 

In 3...2...1 

We're smokin' dynamite 

Too many fuses to light 

(Our kingdom come, on the run) 

Gonna steal, beg and borrow 

A thousand Fahrenheits 

And we're about to ignite 

(So keep the throttle to the bottom) 

We may never see tomorrow 

If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know 

We'll need a coin for the ferryman 

Leave us a coin for the ferryman 

Countin' every nickel, dime and five dollar bill 

So we've been stealin' gasoline and laying low out on the backroads 

The city lights are glowin' over the hill 

And we can make it, but we take the chance of never coming back home 

The dice that we've been rollin' 

Where our lives are bitter stolen 

When you're walking through the fire for fun 

Tidal wave in motion 

You can't hide from the explosion 

In 3...2...1 

We're smokin' dynamite 

Too many fuses to light 

(Our kingdom come, on the run) 

Gonna steal, beg and borrow 

A thousand Fahrenheits 

And we're about to ignite 

(So keep the throttle to the bottom) 

We may never see tomorrow 

If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know 

We'll need a coin for the ferryman 

Leave us a coin for the ferryman 

One for the road and one for those who never leave 

One for the Lord and take it from the devil 

Don't even try, 'cause you know you can't hide 

Better run, better run, better run 

We're smokin' dynamite 

Too many fuses to light 

(Our kingdom come, on the run) 

Gonna steal, beg and borrow 

A thousand Fahrenheits 

And we're about to ignite 

(So keep the throttle to the bottom) 

We may never see tomorrow 

If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know 

We're smokin' dynamite 

(Our kingdom come, on the run) 

A thousand Fahrenheits 

(So keep the throttle to the bottom) 

We may never see tomorrow 

If tonight's our time to go, the one thing I know 

We'll need a coin for the ferryman 

Leave us a coin for the ferryman
