Us Then

(álbum: Summertime Blues - 2022)

(One, two, three four)

Well, the buildin's out in Brooklyn are taller than the clouds
And I don't like who I am Sunday morning, coming down
Tequila out in Texas is tougher on the tongue
Than the devil that I met in Oklahoma when I's young

I miss that old ball cap you stole from me
Out in the woods around a fire in Eastern Tennessee
And the beating that I got from them boys in Baton Rouge
Was nothing like the beating that I got from loving you

Take me back to us then
Where the time's told true
And the sun does shine on a lawn chair holding you
Take me back to us then
Where there's a warm, warm light
Radiating off a cheap smile
Oh, ma, I could die tonight

And that creek we jumped in while you were shaking cold
I never thought such heat would grow dry and old
Takes blood and guts just to get to where we were
Put on your dancing shoes, I'll be him and you be her

Take me back to us then
Where the time's told true
And the sun does shine on a lawn chair holding you
Take me back to us then
Where there's a warm, warm light
Radiating off a cheap smile
Oh, ma, I could die tonight

Take me back to us then
There's a warm, warm light
Radiating off a cheap smile
Oh, ma, I could die tonight
