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
