Assholes Lyrics - Go-go Boots - Drive By Truckers

You buy me dinner when I'm in town 

We talk about records that you know 

Play the friendship card upon me 

And out the door 

Somebody said we hurt your feelings 

With our little dirty jokes 

Then you accused us of stealing 

Back our soul 

Then you say that we're the assholes 

'Cause we bitched about the hassles 

Are you sleeping in your castles? 

And we're still riding down the road 

And I hear you're all offended 

By the letters that I wrote 

It's just a shame it hadn't ended 

Long ago 

When you sick your lawyers on me 

Told them to go for the throat 

And you just sat back and watched them 

Have a go 

Then you say that we're the assholes 

'Cause we bitched about the hassles 

Why you're sleeping in your castles? 

And we're still riding down the road 

But I never would deny 

We have our share of the blame to absorb 

But when you say that you're the reason 

For the things that we've achieved 

I want to kick down your door 

You like to say that we're the assholes 

As if we somehow done you wrong 

We just do what we have to 

To carry on 

I'm sure you'll find another asshole 

To replace us for a song 

You'll keep your office and expense account 

And we'll keep traveling along 

When you say that we're all assholes 

Guess it'd be useless to deny 

I'm just saying you're the reason why
