Oklahoma City (Live)
Old friend, it's been a while, I ain't spoke to you in years
And often times, boys from this town put wheels down and disappear
Miss Cole asked about you just three days back
I had no answer to give her
Told her that you moved way out West to write some songs
And grow a little more bitter
Kids talk about you around here like you're some kind of legend
Wonder if they know a thousand sunrises ago
You were eager just like them
If you ever decide to bring your pain
And your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City
There'll be a porch light on from the post you leaned on
'Fore you wound up on the wrong side of pity
And often times I pray for you and often times I don't
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you, fear of new hellos?
Won't stay for long 'cause you won't stop your running
Wait for tomorrow 'til tomorrow's not coming
Mr. Lukas Ruggy gone
Heard you landed in Tulsa while he slipped away
Is that the reason you're fleeing fields we hauled hay?
Heat this July or the dark last December
Look in my eyes and you might remember
Weed out in Norman, the Stillwater strip
Run far enough boy and you're bound to trip
If you ever decide to bring your pain
And your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City
'll be a porch light on from the post you leaned on
'Fore you wound up on the wrong side of pity
And often times I pray for you and often times I don't
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you, fear of new hellos?
Won't stay for long 'cause you won't stop your running
Wait for tomorrow 'til tomorrow's not coming
If you ever decide to bring your pain
And your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City
'll be a porch light on from the post you leaned on
'Fore you wound up on the wrong side of pity
And often times I pray for you and often times I don't
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you, fear of new hellos?
Won't stay for long 'cause you won't stop your running
Wait for tomorrow 'til tomorrow's not coming
It's pretty cold up here, my guitar went crazy out of tune
But we're still doing it (woo)
Everyone feeling okay? (Woo, yes)
Not freezing too bad? (No)
That's real nice
I'm so sorry we're having you guys bear through this this evening (woo)
And often times, boys from this town put wheels down and disappear
Miss Cole asked about you just three days back
I had no answer to give her
Told her that you moved way out West to write some songs
And grow a little more bitter
Kids talk about you around here like you're some kind of legend
Wonder if they know a thousand sunrises ago
You were eager just like them
If you ever decide to bring your pain
And your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City
There'll be a porch light on from the post you leaned on
'Fore you wound up on the wrong side of pity
And often times I pray for you and often times I don't
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you, fear of new hellos?
Won't stay for long 'cause you won't stop your running
Wait for tomorrow 'til tomorrow's not coming
Mr. Lukas Ruggy gone

And often times I pray for you and often times I don't
Is it the goodbyes that haunt you, fear of new hellos?
Won't stay for long 'cause you won't stop your running

And your pride back to this side of Oklahoma City
'll be a porch light on from the post you leaned on
'Fore you wound up on the wrong side of pity
And often times I pray for you and often times I don't
