Rotgut whiskey's
gonna ease my mind
beach towel rests
on the drying line
Do I remind you of your
daddy in his 88 Ford
labrador hanging out
the passenger door
The sand from your
hair is blowing in my eyes
blame it on the beach
grown men don't cry
Do you remember that
beat down basement
couch I'd sing you
my love songs and
you'd tell me about
How your mama
ran off and pawned
her ring I remember
I remember everything
A cold shoulder
at closing time
you were begging me
to stay til the sun rose
Strange words come
on out of a grown
man's mouth when
his mind's broke
Pictures and passing time
you only smile like
that when you're drinking
I wish I didn't but I do
remember every moment
on the nights with you
You're drinking everything
to ease your mind but
when the hell are you
gonna ease mine
You're like concrete
feet in the summer heat
it burns like hell
when two souls meet
No you'll never
be the man that you
always swore but I'll
remember you singing
in that 88 Ford
A cold shoulder
at closing time you were
begging me to stay
til the sun rose
Strange words come
on out of a grown
man's mouth when
his mind's broke
Pictures and passing time
you only smile like that
when you're drinking
I wish I didn't but I do
remember every moment
on the nights with you
Cold shoulder at
closing time you
were begging me
to stay til the sun rose
Strange words come
on out of a grown
man's mouth when
his mind's broke
Pictures and passing time
you only smile like
that when you're drinking
I wish I didn't but I do
remember every moment
on the nights with you
Rotgut whiskey's
gonna ease my mind
beach towel rests
on the drying line
Do I remind you of your daddy
in my 88 Ford labrador
hanging out the
passenger door
