My son is waiting on me, and he ain't a patient man. |
|
Go and get the sheriff, tell him anything you can. |
|
(Just get him.) |
|
Burned myself on this cast-iron pan handle |
|
long before you came |
|
love was never the subject. |
|
(Go and tell your mom I'd never do it.) |
|
Remember seeing Shirley on the oil fountain? |
|
What a woman, dancing. |
|
I just wanted a happy ending. |
|
(For your little sister, wherever she is:) |
|
Don't be so sorry just cause you lost to your old man, man, man. |
|
Cause |
|
none of this is gonna happen to me |
|
none of this is gonna happen to me |
|
none of this is gonna happen to me |
|
within my lifetime. |
|
I'm just sick to death of the word "inheritance". |
|
It's with your great-grandparents. |
|
You've inherited the wind, fool. |
|
I hope you enjoy it. |
|
I hope you enjoy it. |
|
But I'm going out flipping the bird to California. |
|
Keep your mountains, stars. |
|
I followed all the rules, |
|
I wasn't the one who turned the screw |
|
so hard. |
|
We have a great wanting in common, common, common. |
|
But |
|
none of this is gonna happen to me |
|
none of this is gonna happen to me |
|
none of this is gonna happen to me |
|
within my lifetime. (x 2) |
