Tore Up
(专辑: King Of Dixie - 2017)
The
only time I
see you is when we're in a
crowd You're with your friends and I'm with mine, the
music's bumping loud You used to be the
girl that didn't go out on the
town Now you have these crazy nights on Instagram you post about And through the
neon smoke On a
midtown strip When I'm home alone You're out with your friends I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up about it Up about it, up about it, up about it Uh, yeah we ain't as young as we once was Back when I
had no tattoos, no ID to get in clubs We walked Broadway looking at the
lights and nightlife that we never seen Breathing in those toxic fumes from buses sitting on Second Ave. Trying to sneak in to the
spots where all the
big boys used to roll around I
was 130 pound soaking wet but I
felt like Zeus when you was around A
long way from them county roads in a
small taste of that city life Sweet smell of that Jack Daniel's, old cigarette smoke and neon lights With Alan Jackson from the
background coming from a
country cover band And a
homeless lady on a
street corner killing it when she plays that violin Johnny and June on them alley walls that slept up way back when We didn't know shit about life just six months in to having our license And if these words were Polaroids these pictures would be priceless But these thoughts up in my head keep replaying because they're timeless So whenever you're out up on the
town cheers to the
times that we had Let the
flames of life drift down the
strip of Music City I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up about it Up about it, up about it, up about it Yeah, huh, not as young as we was, right? Now I've been kicked out of every bar except the
one I'm sitting in tonight I
had about twelve drafts and two shots, now I'm in a
back alley smoking pot [?] stumbled into a
fist fight with some jockey dudes and get roughed up But it's all good that Jack Daniel's got me fucked up as always And if I
leave this neon strip it's looking like I
fought a
saw blade Got alcohol on my white suede, car parked on Broadway No pretty lady in the
passenger 'cause of dumb choices that I
made I
start the
Chevy and it's always her song bumping through them sound waves One bullet in that pistol Smith & Wesson come take the
pain away I
talk to my drunk self and tell my sober self I
can't take me So I
pull the
gun on my other half like, "Why you always blaming me?" I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up about it Up about it, up about it, up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up I
still get tore up about it I
still get tore up about it Up about it, up about it, up about it
