Metal Firecracker

Lucinda Williams · Car Wheels On A Gravel Road [2006]

Once we rode together in a metal firecracker



You told me I was your queen



You told me I was your biker



You told me I was everything



Once I was in your blood



And you were obsessed with me



You wanted to paint my picture



You wanted to undress me



You wanted to see me in your future



All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets



Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you



All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets



Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you



Once you held me so tight



I thought I'd lose my mind



You said, "I rocked your world"



You said, "It was for all time"



You said that "I would always be your girl"



We'd put on ZZ Top



And turn 'em up real loud



I used to think you were strong



I used to think you were proud



I used to think nothing could go wrong



All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets



Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you



All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets



Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you
