Say It Ain't So

(album: Songs We Didn't Write - 2019)

Somebody's Heine'
Is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one
Is giving me chills
I guess I'll just close my eyes
Oh yeah, alright
Feels good, inside

Flip on the telly
Wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow

Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker

I can't confront you
I never could do that which might hurt you
So try and be cool
When I say
"This way is a water slide away from me
That takes you further every day"
So be cool

Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker

Dear Daddy, I write you
In spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up, found Jesus
Things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Stephen's
Awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather
The son is drowning in the flood
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah

Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
