Settle down Good

Settle down, settle down
I'll put you in my heart
Point away to Arkansans
And throw me like a dart
Bathe me up in lithium
God knows I need a friend
In a hot spring new dream
We'll start another band
Play it boys

Oh Remember when
Remember when
I was just a kid
Now I'm sorry that I put through
The life I never lived
About drowned in dfw
When I was swimming with the Sharks
To a hot spring in Arkansas
On a river in the dark

I'm gonna settle down
Settle down
And do what I should
There's a girl that's gonna love me
Cause I did all I could
I chop down the world around me
For the heart of the wood
Now, I'm gonna settle down
Settle down good

Well I drank myself to jail and back
But now I'm piss'n clean
Found God at the bottom of a cigarette pack
At the Monday morning meeting

So float me up to Arkansans
Like you used to do
Or maybe down to Galveston
Oh, that wasn't you
Who was that girl
Was that you?
Didn't think so

Well you cried yourself to sleep each night
But I wish you understood
Though I did the devil's work
He was working for the good

I'm gonna settle down
Settle down
And do what I should
There's a girl that's gonna love me
Cause I did all I could
I chop down the world around me
For the heart of the wood
Now, I'm gonna settle down
Settle down good
I'm gonna settle down

Well you poured me out like alcohol
Cause I just can't get enough
There is a bottom of the bottle in every heart
And getting there was tough
I think I was drinking up the dust

I'm gonna settle down
Settle down
And do what I should
There's a girl that's gonna love me
Cause I did all I could
I chopped down this world around me
For the heart of the wood
Now I'm gonna settle down
Settle down good
