Lyrics

See your long face, in that Hallway

Observing someone's unhappy or solemn expression in a hallway

Between what you want and what you've got

Feeling torn between desires and current possessions/situation

Seems the world owes you a favor

Suggesting a sense of entitlement, expecting favors from the world

Now you're pullin' out the stops

Now making maximum efforts, going all out

But you're barkin' up the wrong tree

Pursuing the wrong course of action or target

If you lay one hand on her

Warning against touching a particular person

Yeah, you better pack your bags son

Advising to leave immediately on a long, indirect path

And head out on your endless detour

Embarking on an extended and possibly difficult journey

You're just a long stretch of bad road

Being a significant stretch of troubled times or experiences

You ain't a Hank or a Merle

Not possessing qualities akin to notable figures like Hank Williams or Merle Haggard

She'll cut you loose, like a dead load

Being discarded or freed like an unwanted weight

Cause you can't get Nevada out of that girl

Acknowledging the inability to remove the essence of Nevada from the girl

Now you're drinkin' liquid courage

Consuming alcohol for false bravery or to escape consequences

Just to hide from what you've done

Using drinking as a cover-up for past actions

There's that itchy little question

Raising a suspicious or uncomfortable query

Does her father own a gun?

Concern about the potential threat posed by the girl's father

And those boys from Silver City

Referencing intimidating individuals from Silver City

They aren't here to mess around

Indicating seriousness and lack of mercy from those individuals

They won't show you any pity

Expressing the use of force or punishment

As they're kicking you down to the ground

Symbolizing being forcefully pushed down or defeated

You're just a sack of bad choices

Defined by a series of regretful or poor decisions

You've got her head in a whirl.

Causing confusion or disarray in the girl's mind

Now it's just you and your voices

Left alone with one's inner thoughts or conscience

And you can't get Nevada out of that girl

Unable to erase the influence or essence of Nevada from the girl

Your so underestimated

Being undervalued or not recognized for one's struggles

No one knows the pain that you've been through.

Others unaware of the suffering or challenges faced

What's a man to do?

Pondering the choices available to a man in such circumstances

You're just a sack of bad choices

Defined by a series of regretful or poor decisions

You've got her head in a whirl

Causing confusion or disarray in the girl's mind

Now it's just you and your voices

Left alone with one's inner thoughts or conscience

Cuz' you can't get Nevada out of that girl

Reiterating the inability to remove the essence of Nevada from the girl

No you can't get Nevada out of that girl

Emphasizing the impossibility of removing Nevada from the girl

Man you can't get Nevada

Asserting the impossibility of separating Nevada from the girl

Out of that girl (can't get Nevada)

Repeating the inability to remove Nevada from the girl

Out of that girl

Stating again the impossibility of separating Nevada from the girl

Out of that girl (can't get Nevada)

Reiterating the inability to remove Nevada from the girl

Out of that girl

Continuing to emphasize the impossibility of separating Nevada from the girl
