North Carolina

(альбом: A Little Bit Faster And A Little Bit Worse - 2006)

Sweet demon North Carolina
Gave your daughter to me
She left me on that corner staring
Knocked the wind outta me

Well dime to a dollar now, and that dollar back to a dime
I'm wondering how I been wasting all that precious time
I just been sitting down here on that railway line
Thinking about what used to be mine

Girl, I'm just sitting down here wondering why
Just watching days like hours all fly on by
I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
Wondering how many years it's been
Singing...

Sweet demon North Carolina
Gave your daughter to me
She left me on that corner staring
Knocked the wind outta me

Well if I'd a known that things woulda ended up this way
I would have never left my happy home anyway
I would've stayed down on my bended knees and prayed
Hoping I would never see this day

Girl, I'm just sitting down here wondering why
Just watching days like hours all click on by
I'm just sitting 'round here with my head in my hand,
Wondering how many years it's been
Singing

Sweet demon North Carolina
Gave your daughter to me
She left me on that corner staring
Knocked the wind outta me
