Cover Me Up |
A heart on the run keeps a hand on the gun |
You can't trust anyone |
I was so sure what I needed was more |
Tried to shoot out the sun |
Days when we raged, we flew off the page |
Such damage was done |
But I made it through, 'cause somebody knew |
I was meant for someone |
So girl, leave your boots by the bed |
We ain't leaving this room |
Till someone needs medical help |
Or the magnolias bloom |
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood |
So cover me up and know you're enough |
To use me for good |
Put your faith to the test when I tore off your dress |
In Richmond on high |
But I sobered up and I swore off that stuff |
Forever this time |
And the old lover's sing |
“I thought it'd be me who helped him get home” |
But home was a dream |
One I'd never seen till you came along |
So girl, hang your dress up to dry |
We ain't leaving this room |
Till Percy Priest breaks open wide |
And the river runs through |
And carries this house on the Stones |
Like a piece of driftwood |
Cover me up and know you're enough |
To use me for good |
So girl, leave your boots by the bed |
We ain't leaving this room |
Till someone needs medical help |
Or the magnolias bloom |
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood |
So cover me up and know you're enough |
To use me for good |
Cover me up and know you're enough |
To use me for good |
