Nashville Songtext
von Old 97’s
Nashville Songtext
Well I married Caroline
Back in May of ′99
It was fucked up at the time
But I figured we'd keep tryin′
Her brother and her dad
They were spittin' mad
When I packed up what I mad
And took off runnin', it was bad
It was mean, I didn′t care
And it′s gotten me nowhere
So I'm tryin′ to be a better man
I turned left turns into right
I turned sunshine into night
I got my ass kicked every fight
No I couldn't get it right
I built castles out of sand
I didn′t understand
Why everything I planned
Ran like whiskey off my hands
And my hands were never clean
Things I wished I'd never seen
I′d do anything to wake up
From this motherfuckin' dream
Back in May of ′99
It was fucked up at the time
But I figured we'd keep tryin′
Her brother and her dad
They were spittin' mad
When I packed up what I mad
And took off runnin', it was bad
It was mean, I didn′t care
And it′s gotten me nowhere
So I'm tryin′ to be a better man
I turned left turns into right
I turned sunshine into night
I got my ass kicked every fight
No I couldn't get it right
I built castles out of sand
I didn′t understand
Why everything I planned
Ran like whiskey off my hands
And my hands were never clean
Things I wished I'd never seen
I′d do anything to wake up
From this motherfuckin' dream
