Lyrics Girlfriend - Streets Of Laredo

Girlfriend

She’s 21
Tryna have some fun
Everybody around think she’s a vagrant
Two bottle wine, yeah
Drinkin' on the pavement
She’s my girlfriend.
He’s 25
Tryna stay alive
Tryna pay rent
Tryna survive
No dollars in my pocket, yeah
I’m losin' my mind
Yeah, I’m tryna pay rent.
She’s my girlfriend
I’m tryna pay my rent.
She’s 21
Tryna have some fun
Everyone around think she’s a vagrant
Two bottle wine, yeah
Drinkin' on the pavement
She’s drinkin' whiskey
I’m on the water
I’m taking orders
I’m just a porter
She’s my girlfriend, yeah
She’s my girlfriend
I’m on the pavement.
She’s my girlfriend.
Yeah
Where I’m from it’s summer when it’s raining
I’m so used to everyone complaining
I’m scrubbin' floors
Now I’m the one complaining
Tryna make some money so I can see the ladies
Statue of liberty.
What you gonna give to me?
She’s my girlfriend, yeah.
She’s my girlfriend
I’m on the sidelines
She’s in the moment
Moment by moment
Summer thunder
Variant
Letters from the government
Running mobs and breaking banks
Breaking rules and turning heads
She’s my girlfriend
I’m on the pavement
It’s just the weekend
I’m tryna pay my rent.
