Crawlin' Mood

(album: Come Get Your Wife - 2023)

Whiskey and jealousy
And you have history
Of accusing me of sins, it just ain't fair
So you kick me out
And call me names
And to keep the peace I take the blame
This time darlin I don't really care

I dug myself a hole with what I said, said, said
Before I hold you in my arms, I'll have to beg, beg, beg

Crawling is the only way to make my way back to you
Baby, I ain't in no crawling mood

Spare room sitting on a thread bare couch
I'm looking around the old dog house
Thinking to myself, "This ain't so bad"
I'm kinda old and making due
This blue tick hound ain't mean as you
He likes my cooking and my jokes and he never gets mad

I dug myself a hole with what I said, said, said
Before I hold you in my arms, I'll have to beg, beg, beg

Crawling is the only way to make my way back to you
Baby, I ain't in no crawling mood

Had a couple of days now to reflect
How I miss your kisses and a nice warm bed
And I got it in my head to apologize
But something don't seem right with me
'Bout showing up on bended knee
With big ol' crocodile tears here in my eyes

I dug myself a hole with what I said, said, said
Before I hold you in my arms, I'll have to beg, beg, beg

Crawling is the only way to make my way back to you
Baby, I ain't in no crawling mood
Yeah, tomorrow I wake up with a brand new attitude
Right now, I just ain't in no crawling mood
