Comin' Clean
Whiskey-soaked Confessions: Jeff Leach's Journey of Redemption
Lyrics
Walking down the highway in fancy clothes
Describing walking on the highway dressed in fancy attire.
Looking for the party but no one ever goes
Searching for a party that no one attends.
When I start to feel it it's like freezing rain
When emotions start, it feels painful, like freezing rain.
And every time it comes on it hurts just the same
Each time emotions arise, they cause the same level of hurt.
Comin' clean
Reiteration of the speaker admitting honesty or confessing.
And I'm comin' clean
-And I'm comin' clean
-Quiet little lady is on my mind
Thinking about a quiet woman, contrasted with loud and unkind others.
Cause all those loud mouth gals they treat me unkind
Expressing mistreatment by outspoken women.
Give me a bottle of whiskey to get me through
Using whiskey to cope with difficulties.
I'll tell ya that I'm holding on like everyone must do
Stating that the speaker is enduring challenges, like everyone does.
Comin' clean
Repeated admission of coming clean or being honest.
And I'm comin' clean
-And I'm comin' clean
-Meet me in the mountains above the sea
Invitation to meet in a remote, elevated place near the sea.
Like a lonesome cowboy running from the deputy
Comparing oneself to a lonesome cowboy evading authority.
Wake me in the morning and lie with me at night
Desire to be together in the morning and night.
The highway never ends even when it's out of sight
Implies that even when the road isn't visible, the journey continues.
Comin' clean
Repetition of the speaker's commitment to honesty.
And I'm comin' clean
-And I'm comin' clean
