Hackin' Darts

(album: Jade Eagleson - 2020)

Well, I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer
Sitting in a cloud of smoke, but I've never seen more clear
She pulled away and let the taillights fade
As she threw my truck in gear
And now, I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer

Same old story, song, and dance
You know the classic one about the mean old man?
He said, "There ain't no way you're gonna take her hand
You're no good, son, you need a five year plan
You look like a fool with them smokes up your sleeve
You're just a redneck version of James Dean
And now you've got to the count of three
To get the hell off my property"

Now, I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer (ice cold)
Sitting in a cloud of smoke, but I've never seen more clear
She pulled away and let the taillights fade
As she threw my truck in gear
And now, I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer

She used to like my outlaw side
But I presume she got sick of hearing "Mama Tried"
In the same old dive, every Friday night
She didn't take too kind to the honky-tonk life
She said her daddy said
"Honey, he don't make no money
His boots are always muddy, and he smells a little funny"

And now I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer
Sitting in a cloud of smoke, but I've never seen more clear
She pulled away and let the taillights fade
As she threw my truck in gear
And now, I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer
(Aw drink those beers, boys)

Yee-haw

(I'm gettin light-headed)

He says, "Rent's overdue, you've got truck payments too
Can't keep living this life the way that you do"
But he don't know, I'll be doing alright
'Cause all my drinking buddies pay my tab every night

And I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer (ice cold)
Sitting in a cloud of smoke, but I've never seen more clear
She pulled away and let the taillights fade
As she threw my truck in gear
And now, I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer

Yeah, I'm hacking darts over broken hearts
And drinking ice cold beer
Alright
