Why'd you have to wear that dress this evening. And those high heels with those buckles on your feet?. I love the way your hair falls down across your shoulders.
I didn't call you up and tell you. Girl, I'm sorry, with whiskey on my breath. I didn't ask you to forgive me. Cause girl I know you haven't yet. . I didn't midnight knock your front door.
Sun gettin' heavy and the night is fallin'. Phone ringin' it's a good time callin'. Old truck slicked up shinin' like a rhinestone. . Takin' off like a big red pocket.
I learned quick my eighteenth summer. Diggin' ditches for the man. You can't be a guitar strummer. Cussin' that shovel in your hand. . Took my paycheck to a pawn shop.
Sometimes I lie awake. Starin at the ceilin'. I'll have someone beside me. She wont know your name. She wont be here long. Yeah shes almost a memory. You'll never be really gone.
