Well, she says that she don't drink That she dumps his whiskey down the sink But I've seen her put away some Old Crow Bright as a flower, soft as rain Tongue with a cuttin' Dust Bowl twang And she wears a ring, the good girl down the road
Been close with Johnny since we was 12 With our single-shot rifles, raisin' hell We got stories that nobody knows We still get together for some cards and beer When the work week's through and we're free & clear And he's only a stone's throw down the road
Johnny had a bottle he'd tucked away He tossed the cap like a bride's bouquet And laughed, "You ain't leavin' 'til this sucker floats" We dealt and we drank 'til I stumbled to go Then there she was like a Bright Red bow Smiling at me through the door The Good Girl down the road
Well, I was full of cheap gin and my wishful thinkin' But I swear that her eyes were cheatin' And now I can't let it go... She's the Good Girl down the road
Rose in the mornin' as slow as molasses Felt around for my sunglasses Last night sinkin' in like melting snow And now I'm gettin' flashes of her big brown eyes And they're lightin' up all kind-a wildfires Fillin' my mind with stupid thoughts and hopes For the Good Girl down the road
Well, I was full of cheap gin and my wishful thinkin' But I swear that her eyes were cheatin' And now I can't let it go... She's the Good Girl down the road
Johnny & I knew her in curls Before Docs and Tommy Girl She's had me since 1991 Oh, but my buddy's got himself one silver tongue
On a river road, hours away Sits a pine cabin in post oak shade The woman on the phone says she'll let me know I gotta get myself out of this county The lines are blurring all around me- Gonna break out the big bottle of Old Crow- Gonna raise a few glasses 'fore I go- To the Good Girl down the road
Well, I was full of cheap gin and my wishful thinkin' Well now I know that her eyes were cheatin' And now I can't let it go... She's the Good Girl down the road... The Good Girl down the roadTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
