lyrics

2 quarts of whiskey, 40 something cigarettes, I haven’t slept a wink,
A ride down Lake Street in a busted up old Cadillac, baby, what’s a girl to think

My shame is eating at me, it’s crystal clear you want to stab me in the throat
Been 20 years of madness, 6 of bliss and 2 of sadness, and now I’m damn near broke


Don’t refuse me,
I need your love to keep hanging around,
I promise not to use you
Once my feet can touch the ground

Please help me, with the lid on the skippy jar,
Please help me, I need your hands to steer my car

[SOLOS]

I dreamt a dream it was you not me
Were clinging to a raft, with half your teeth a-coming loose
Like Captain Jack, I travel time to make the rescue,
Walking a tight rope just to feel the truth

My sweetie-o, you surely know, if I don’t make the rent …it makes me weebble and wobble

So many years, I know your fears and felt your tears, Now I just need a drink from your bottle

[Chorus]
