New morning brings me cold dew
Aching back and I’m missing you
These days, I’m ready too
School house, threshing floor
I had enough and they tell me take some more
These days, I’m ready too
Ready to move on, ready to skip town
Ready to go and come around
Ready to take all we gave back
Ready to move
Evening air holds my breath,
But there’s no guarantee of any life or any death
These days, I’m ready too
Sparks fly in a gasoline tank
As we embark on a boat already sinking (we embarked on a boat ready to sink)
These days, I’m ready too
Ready to move on, ready to skip town
Ready to go and come around
Ready to take all we gave back
Ready to move

Jacqueline, why don’t you tell me what’s on your mind?
Hate getting stuck here all the time
I can’t wait anymore for you
Jacqueline, it’s like you left me out in the rain.
Like you threw me in front of a train
Girl, I don’t’ know anymore what to do
Why don’t you tell me the truth girl?
Is it so hard to do?
Am i just wasting all my time?
All the time i spend here with you
Jacqueline, you sent me all my letters back
You let my vinyl records scratch
And then you let me walk right out your door
Jacqueline, you know this isn’t what I need
‘Cause I know what’s good for me
And I can’t keep coming back for more
Why don’t you tell me the truth girl?
Is it so hard to do?
Am i just wasting all my time?
All the time i spend here with you
Jacqueline, why don’t you tell me what’s on your mind?
Hate getting stuck here all the time
I can’t wait anymore for you
Why don’t you tell me the truth girl?
Is it so hard to do?
Am i just wasting all my time?
All the time i spend here with you

Coffee

Me and all your friends you got us
So confused its old news
But what you didn’t see
Is that someone like you should lose your infancy
In a world where I never had you, baby I want you back
As a girl who would never want to, you keep me on track
I’ve got seven days and counting down with ease
Even for old times, let’s go get coffee
Me and all your friends you got us
So confused its old news
But what you didn’t see
Is that someone like you should throw out your Barbies
In a world where I never had you, baby I want you back
As a girl who would never want to, you keep me on track
I’ve got seven days and counting down with ease
Even for old times, let’s go get coffee
Well my head’s not spinning now
Only cause you stand still
With some crème and some coffee grounds
Well I promise you it will
In a world where I never had you, baby I want you back
As a girl who would never want to, you keep me on track
I’ve got seven days and counting down with ease
Even for old times, let’s go get coffee

Don’t text me and wake us up, she told me this morning
Thinking she’d still get her way
But everything that you did right,
You know it died for to me today
‘Cause you hound me and your drown me in what has gone
Can you hear my resentment? Or will you just sing along?
I wish you could see what you’re doing to me
‘Cause I’ve been hurt enough and I’m no longer sorry
A text message breakup after dating four years
Who did I think you were?
But I’m thankful, yeah I’m thankful it’s over
That’s one thing that I’m sure
‘Cause you hound me and your drown me in what has gone
Can you hear my resentment? Or will you just sing along?
I wish you could see what you’re doing to me
‘Cause I’ve been hurt enough and I’m no longer sorry

Bluegrass

Well I thought you'd look pretty next to me
Pretty shallow, I’m sorry
I thought I’d have you in the trees
Not the flowers, but good enough for me
Headed up, all was well in Carolina
Spending time every day we talked it out
But then a porch swing conversation sent you spinning
Into orbit and spiraling in doubt
So let's put on some bluegrass and think about it
I’ll read you a romance novel too
Think about what all your friends are saying
It’s only love that's waiting here for you
Now you've gone and gotten yourself in a quandary
You need a man of means to get you to the end
You put your heart out on your sleeve to take a beating
But not a single simple text you'd want to send
As your behavior shocks the likes of all your exes
And pushes them away it pulls me in
I have nothing but clarity around me
And no excuses for adults who play pretend
So let's put on some bluegrass and think about it
I’ll read you a romance novel too
Think about what all your friends are saying
It’s only love that's waiting here for you
My buddy calls you late to talk it over:
"Is this you? Is this who you want to be?"
I sit and write a song anticipating
And get nostalgic for the weekend in the trees
Pretty faces don't deserve to do the crying
Silently you blame it on yourself
But that's not yet the worst of it they tell me
Cause here I am another boyfriend that can help
So let's put on some bluegrass and think about it
I’ll read you a romance novel too
Think about what all your friends are saying
It’s only love that's waiting here for you
It’s only love

Did I give you everything you needed?
Did I shield you from the cold?
Did I take the time to listen
To all the things I wasn’t supposed to know?
Yeah, I know about your childhood
And what your cousin did to you
Don’t have time for your excuses
I don’t make time to play the fool
Well, did nobody treat you right back home?
Did somebody let you down?
Well did nobody treat you right back home?
Put your shoebox back in the ground
I don’t have time for your memories now
Yeah I know what I’ve been missing,
Yeah I know it isn’t you
I’m trying to find something that’s easy,
Not fake the love you’re trying to prove
You think I like to be your counselor?
You think I love it when I’m right?
I don’t like knowing all the answers
Takes all the learning out of my life
Well did nobody treat you right back home?
Did somebody let you down?
Well did nobody treat you right back home?
Put your shoebox back in the ground
I don’t have time for your memories now
I’m not your doctor, I’ll never be
So don’t set your sights on marrying me
Sure I understand you, yeah I know you best
But I’ve yet to find a girl who can handle my head
I don’t have time for all your problems
I’ve got heartache of my own
At least I found a way of dealing
Outside of running or going back home
You found a place for all your feelings
In your shoebox in the dirt
Well you try to express and get it all off your chest
Every day takes a little more work
Well did nobody treat you right back home?
Did somebody let you down?
Well did nobody treat you right back home?
Put your shoebox back in the ground
I don’t have time for your memories now

Mr. Radio

When I was young put on the radio
Listen to the world I would become
War and politics command it
Never mind the beating of a drum
My mind, it listened patiently
My ears grew tired of the solemn noise
My heart grew numb to all of it
Now curiosity we must avoid
When it all comes down again
Bear in mind, it’ll come
I won’t know what’s happening,
What’s hitting me, I’m living free
Mr. Radio, please just let me be
I take some time alone to wonder,
Singing through my mornings for a year
Well, curiosity it got the best of me and
Late one night I turned a hopeful ear.
Confession in the driver’s seat
I lost all touch with races to be run
The taste of metal on my lips
And from my mouth I pull a loaded gun
When it all comes down again
Bear in mind, it’ll come
I won’t know what’s happening,
What’s hitting me, I’m living free
Mr. Radio, please just let me be
Good night Mr. Radio, don’t set your dial on me.

Olah

Ain’t nobody ever sing to you? Aint you heard that song before?
Your eyes say that you miss me like I spent three years at war
In some forgotten country where they rearrange the dust with carbon bombs
Oh la la la la la la la
I will confess I had my feelings, making small talk on the way
To a lecture class that kicks my ass plus I'm always running late
I make up some excuse to be on your side of town, I call you up
Oh la la la la la la la
Oh la la la la la la la
I refuse to be your Jodi, how dare you tempt me so?
Consider myself gone until you know, I’m not breaking up the married folk
Well I thought I couldn’t have you, now I shouldn’t, now it’s wrong
Every time you leave a message or start a hug that lasts too long
I’ve always been the little straw that breaks the camel’s back, well suck it up
Oh la la la la la la la
Well please don’t make it awkward, your precious room-mate says to me
Well pretty close to over isn’t solid guarantee
'Cause my heart it starts to hurting with complicated love and cold Chinese
Oh la la la la la la la
Oh la la la la la la la
I refuse to be your Jodi, how dare you tempt me so?
Consider myself gone until you know, I’m not breaking up the married folk
I want both of your friendships but Carolina does it right
I’d rather be alone if I can get to sleep at night
Go now to your arms, boys, I call in my retreat
Cause all your double lovin' is double flanking me
Oh la la la la la la la
Oh la la la la la la la
I refuse to be your Jodi, how dare you tempt me so?
Consider myself gone until you know, I’m not breaking up the married folk
Oh la la la lala la la

That girl with the long dark hair
She done tied me to a chair
She cut the rope and sent the boy out on his way
And when that rope it hit the ground
It tied the knot on this little town
She cut the rope and sent the boy out on his way
‘Cause gravel roads can only bring me so far for today
John Henry down the road
You know that he has paid his toll
And his hammer set the steak into the ground
Well that old tractor on the lawn
With the rust where blue paint has gone
Has kicked us down the road to find our way
‘Cause gravel roads can only bring me so far for today
I kiss my momma’s fears goodbye,
I leave the greener grass behind me
And I set off with my baby by my side
Well concrete or marble slab,
We’ve run our 18 laps
And now we can kick off down the road to find our way
‘Cause gravel roads can only bring me so far for today
I kiss my momma’s fears goodbye,
I leave the greener grass behind me
And I set off with my baby by my side
Well concrete or marble slab,
We’ve run our 18 laps
And now we can kick off down the road to find our way
‘Cause gravel roads can only bring me so far for today

What would you do, what if you knew that a pretty girl would love you back?
What would you say?
What would you tell her if you knew that she was listening?
Listening
Well I think that I could love you but I’d never know until we tried
Miles to go before I sleep, but I don’t think that you’d survive the night
You already know so much about me
You already know so much about me
What would you do, what if you knew that a pretty boy had someone in his way?
What would you say?
What would you tell her if you knew that she was listening?
Listening
Well I think that I could love you but I’d never know until we tried
Miles to go before I sleep, but I don’t think that you’d survive the night
You already know so much about me
You already know so much about me
