I remember how we used to be. It's been so long since you looked at me. Like I was a woman. . Tell me you want me right now. Say I'm the one thing you can't live without.
If I dream too much, if I'm livin' up. If you hear me laughin' from across the room. That's just me, baby. Gettin' over you. . If I'm out at night with my jeans too tight.
I can't believe you'd do that to me, use me. You fooled around and wrecked my heart. She's just a skank, rode hard and put up. Well, good luck. . I would've given you the finger on my left hand.
Daddy was clappin', mama was cryin'. The Pentecost preacher was sayin' amen. Went down lost and came up found. Eleven years old I was born again. . Oh I, I found the answer in the river that day.
I wish I could blame it on him. But I know it's my pride that led to his tail lights. I had to have the last word, me and my big mouth. My life just walked out.
I don't want to appear too forward. But then again I wanna say so much. I don't wanna scare him off. 'Cause we're off to such a good start. Such a good start.
If you could hold your woman. Like you hold your whiskey. I'd still be in your arms. . You come when you're lonely. And even then it's only. When you know the party's shuttin' down.
I met a guy last night and girl, I felt the earth move. If you'd've been there I swear you would've felt it too. But I spilled red wine on his white shirt.
Never moved to the big ol' city. Like a lot friends I know. Had my eye on somethin' closer. Not far down the road. . Buckin' hay on a flatbed Chevy. Green eyes and a working tan.
My roots run deep down a dirt road. Rough and tumbles in my blood. I was raised to make my own way, the hard way. Life knocks me down, I get back up. .
Your cheatin' heart. Will make you weep. You'll cry and cry and try to sleep. But sleep won't come the whole night through. Your cheatin' heart. Will tell on you.
Are there no blinders on lights that glare?. White noise on the eyes. From gas station lights and reflected ice glare. So that I can walk home by moonlight alone.
I can still see that lonesome road stretched out before me. The road that led me out of his life. I can still feel the tears he cried on my shoulder. The day that I told him good-bye.
From the minute you saw it. By the time it left my mouth. I knew you wouldn't want it. But I had to let it out. . I saw your smile, and I fell. Now I just can't believe.
I didn't go to Washington, instead I swept the floor. The only things I've ever done you can't see anymore. I knew there would be magic but I turned at the last chance.
It's perfectly suited, this uniform grey. There are no bearings to the day. . I came down from the air and I'll leave by boat. I'm down with your rainy town, out on the spit.
Baby, I know that we got trouble in the fields. And the bankers swarm like locusts out there, turning away our yields. And the trains roll by our silo, silver in the rain.
You said, I could have it all. You said it to me. With your eyes so wide, excited. I stop to see what you mean. . In the drone of afternoon traffic. On a slope that's slippery.
I got to put some things in the ground. Even with this season coming around. It's green's last gasp and leaves brown. And autumn days are winding down.
A new wind will blow through everything. Through everything I know. . I was looking into every car. Hoping that someone might see and look back. I knew I let it out too far, I watched it go.
