Oh My Poison

(album: Nobody's Fool - 2015)

I feel so low, son
Since I lost my someone
With this government paycheck
I'm gonna buy a new one
And sit right here
With my lukewarm beer
Just-a licking my wounds
From ear to ear

So the old folklore
From the year before
Keeps-a finding my street
Climbing in my back seat
So what if I lay
Down my head 'til Monday
Just-a living my most
From coast to coast

Oh, my poison
Keeps trouble busy grinning from ear to ear
Oh, I'd like to stick around but I sure can't wake up here
Oh, my poison
(Oh, my poison)

So the sun sets slow
On the musty water
So buy some real estate
And gather some daughters
Teach them all about mercy
Keep them young and thirsty
Love sure is blind
From time to time

Oh, my poison
Keeps trouble busy grinning from ear to ear
Yeah, I'd like to stick around but I sure can't wake up here
Oh, my poison
Oh, my poison
Oh, my poison
Yeah, oh, my poison
Oh, my poison
