Avery Songtext
von Liz Longley

You got so damn high you left me in Wisconsin
And I was sound asleep as you drove my car away
About a hundred miles south of where we were going
I was stuck in a stale motel just cursing your name
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all these miles of memories
Avery, you said you′d run but you never said you wouldn't take me
What about Alabama
What about Tennessee
What a friend you turned out to be, Avery
Last I heard you sold my beat-up Chevy
But you never spared a dime to give me a call
Are you hitching rides on highways, railways, every day
Trying to break free from the weight of yesterdays
Getting lost in drugs and alcohol


Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all these miles of memories
Avery, you said you′d run but you never said you wouldn't take me
What about Alabama
What about Tennessee
What a friend you turned out to be, Avery
Are you howling at the moon in Montana
Burnt by the sun in Santa Fe
Oh, wherever you go, you're never gonna stay
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all these miles of memories
Avery, you said you′d run but you never said you wouldn′t take me
Oh, forget about Alabama
To hell with Tennessee
What a friend you turned out to be
Don't you think it′s time you came clean, Avery
