Codeine Pills (Part One)

(álbum: Elisabeth - 2020)

Every time you come to town, we wind up doing the same thing
Getting high and running around, blame you tend on placing

I remember waking up with you, I wish you'd leave me laying
Praying God'll get us through the bills we ain't been paying
I hear a lot of people talk about you, I can't hear what they're saying
You're not used to sticking around, grown accustomed to the staying

Every time you come to town, we wind up doing the same thing
Getting high and running around, the blame you tend on placing
And are you happy now Anita now that you're finally free
When you said that you were leaving and only coming back for me

Cheap booze and codeine pills ain't worth all the losing
Nothing can come between us, damn a life worth choosing
Cheap booze and codeine pills ain't worth all the losing
Nothing can come between us, damn a life worth choosing

Daddy said I've lost mind and my momma she'd be grieving
Your face down in a bathroom stall with vices planned on keeping
Are you happy now Anita now that you're finally free
When you said that you were leaving and only coming back for me

Cheap booze and codeine pills ain't worth all the losing
'Cause nothing can come between us, damn a life worth choosing
Cheap booze and codeine pills ain't worth all the losing
Nothing can come between us, damn a life worth choosing

Every time you come to town, we wind up doing the same thing
Getting high and running around, blame you tend on placing
