Buddy Boy

(album: Leftover Feelings - 2021)

Buddy boy
Your feet are always heading west
Your mind is lying in the weeds
Your heart is stomping on your chest
Come down off your high horse
Why don't you just give it a rest
Buddy boy, buddy boy

Hey buddy boy
You just keep doing what you do
You're gonna wake up some morning
Won't be no one 'round you
You'll be talkin to four walls
And one be talking back to you
Buddy boy, buddy boy

Oh buddy boy
Don't care how much you know yourself,
You can't think your way outta this one
You're gonna need some help

Buddy boy
Now who is giving who the slip
Love is your destination
But you're always on some kinda trip

Buddy boy
You think she's messing with your head
But you better stop your rambling
Come home and sleep in your own bed
Before she gets tired of waiting for ya
And someone's sleeping there instead

Hey buddy
The river she run up hill
You don't think you're gonna make it
But I think you will
Forget the dreams you wasted
Forget the time you killed
Hey buddy boy, hey buddy boy
