Whiskey Meal

Relationship’s just politics, she’ll leave you over everything you love.
If you oppose her she’ll lie to you ‘til you’re better off.
They’re diggin’ up all those pyramid’s finding rich men kept up pretty good.
Well, will you bury me in the backyard, at the edge of the woods?
You finally got it through to me that I deserve as much.
Should I believe you, or hold out for the next she-deviled one?
And no one knows what the detour shows on my way home.

On the radio they sing me a song
About leaving home and losing my love
The radio sings me a song
And this whiskey meal turns right upside down
Drifting off to lonesome town.

No one knows where the dead ones go, so don’t act like you do.
But don’t believe I’m the only one whispering these words to you.
All the golden aristocrats will burn under the peddler’s act,
Cause you can try lock me up but you can’t seat a traveling man.
So many nights end, kissing that girl I’ll never kiss again.
The next day she’ll call and say it’d be nice if we could just be friends,
Happens time and time again. I got too many goddamn friends.

in here, the whiskey’s cold and this country road leads me home.

On the radio they sing me a song
About leaving home and losing my love
The radio sings me a song
And this whiskey meal turns right upside down
Drifting off to lonesome town.
