Houston County Sky

Oh, pour me up a drink, there's a bottle and a seat
 I'm only halfway to crazy by now
 We're past that breaking point, past that road of choice
 And there ain't nothin' left in this town
 I thought by now I'd've figured shit out
 You and me, we got some bad reputations
 We dance 'round like thieves in the night
 I bet your halo could use some reconsideration
 But it's the only thing that makes this all right
 Heaven knows time ain't slowin' down
 Yeah, we still kick around
 Our same ol' stomping grounds
 And life, it'll pass you by
 As you drink all through the night
 Under a Houston County sky
 So roll me up a smoke, I'll take a toke for hope
 I'm only halfway to 80 by now
 You was a Peanut Queen, I was 17 and mean
 You wanted so bad to leave this town
 Ain't it funny how it all works out
 Ain't nothin' left but making love and raising babies
 There ain't nothing wrong with the simple life
 Hey darling, I love you, but the smoke is gettin' hazy
 Maybe we should just get drunk and fight
 Down at The Gin on a Saturday night
 Heaven knows time ain't slowin' down
 Yeah, we still kick around
 Our same ol' stomping grounds
 And life, it'll pass you by
 As you drink all through the night
 Under a Houston County sky
 Heaven knows time ain't slowin' down
 Yeah, we still kick around
 Our same ol' stomping grounds
 And life, it'll pass you by
 As you drink all through the night
 Under a Houston County sky
 A Houston County sky
 A Houston County sky
