Yesteryear

(album: Red Eye - 2020)

Callused heart and a bottle on the shelf
She wrecked my mind and I wrecked my health
I stay lost and don't want to be found
People wonder why the hell I stuck around

Bad women, cheap booze, and rocky mountain weed
Living fast [?]
I play my songs that nobody wants to hear
Treading in the muddy waters of yesteryear

I got tired of the bullshit and I wasn't going to take it anymore
Well the point is they're not bitching about shit that didn't even matter at the door

Well, I'm going to be me, live as a pioneer
Might be going all the wrong ways
But, I ain't going back to yesteryear
I ain't going to yesteryear, yesteryear

I can drink and I play my music loud
People often question my kind of outlaw crowd
But, I'm singing so the whole damn world can hear
That I ain't ever going back to yesteryear

Well, I'm going to be me, live as a pioneer
Might be going all the wrong ways
But, I ain't going back to yesteryear
Karma's a wicked lady baby
Death was always near
But the cheating heart is all on you baby
I ain't ever going back to yesteryear, yesteryear
