| Our separation seems forever, I’ll do it if it’s what you like
|
| Go take your bags to New York City, call me when your plane arrives
|
| I’ll feed the children, wash the dishes, I’ll keep the house lookin' nice
|
| Well, don’t you worry now, everything’s gonna be alright
|
| It’s been snowin' this October turnin' grass into grain
|
| Do you see much past your hotel window friday nights with your gang?
|
| I can only hope that things were different and darlin' do you feel the same
|
| Every time you’re drinkin' wine in the rain?
|
| Oh, oh, all you said you’ve seen is my face in a magazine
|
| My hair slicked back and clean or so it seemed
|
| And now anyone can say that a man shouldn’t live this way
|
| So take your pretty poison right into the grave, we’ll never change
|
| I sold our house, the 3rd December, we’re livin' where our feet done land
|
| And the babies screams, they might get to heaven
|
| But they’re buried far 'neath the sand
|
| All I know’s my minds done thinkin', my mouths doin' what it can
|
| To keep the rhythm and put a nickel back in your hand
|
| Oh, oh, all you said you’ve seen is my face in a magazine
|
| My hair slicked back and clean or so it seemed
|
| And now anyone can say that a man shouldn’t live this way
|
| So take your pretty poison right into the grave
|
| We dated naked out in the rain
|
| We are okay to the pain, they’ll never change, oh no, no, no, no |
