Marlow
I'm making you this phone call
Just to let you know
You're gonna be getting phone calls
All about the doings
At the trailer on Saturday night
And if I know this place
You're gonna hear
Some fantastic stories
So I thought it might behoove me
To call you and tell you my side
What had happened was
We got in a scrap because
She was talking crap, like she does
All the time
Over nothing at all
So of course when the law came
Y'all can guess who they all blamed
And then they found my cocaine
That could have gone better
It's hard not to frown
Banging round
Same old town
Getting older
Where they got bones they wanna pick
And knives they wanna stick
Between your shoulders
These old hills still have eyes
And towns of this size
Just never let anything die
And this time I don't know
If I'll make it out of Marlow alive
Cause what had happened was
It all went really bad for us
And we got nothing left to discuss
Just a love
Left to rust on the ground
Don't I pay all the damn bills
Don't I tell that bitch I love her still
And when she wants her pain pills
Who's out driving all over town
What had happened was
Nobody ever went to bat for us
We'll never get it back like it was
Might as well put that one down
What had happened was
I turned into one ornrey cuss
I see my future at the back of a bus
Kicking dust
In a big rush out of town
What had happened was
I watched it all turn to dust
What had happened was
It all just fell apart
Just to let you know
You're gonna be getting phone calls
All about the doings
At the trailer on Saturday night
And if I know this place
You're gonna hear
Some fantastic stories
So I thought it might behoove me
To call you and tell you my side
What had happened was
We got in a scrap because
She was talking crap, like she does
All the time
Over nothing at all
So of course when the law came
Y'all can guess who they all blamed
And then they found my cocaine
That could have gone better
It's hard not to frown
Banging round
Same old town
Getting older
Where they got bones they wanna pick
And knives they wanna stick
Between your shoulders
These old hills still have eyes
And towns of this size
Just never let anything die
And this time I don't know
If I'll make it out of Marlow alive
Cause what had happened was
It all went really bad for us
And we got nothing left to discuss
Just a love

In a big rush out of town
What had happened was
I watched it all turn to dust
What had happened was
It all just fell apart
