...Meantime (feat. Hailey Whitters) - Flatland Cavalry

I breathe it in like morning wind Through pampas grass, I'll make it last Like my last twenty Oh, ain't it funny? How even when it's wrong, I come on strong Like coffee black, I'll burn as fast as a box fan hummin' Oh, I ain't runnin' from nothin' I can't help that I'm this way My heart goes wild and that won't change If I take this love right to my grave It is 'cause I fault how I was raised, hey I wear it proud like Mama's house Or a Sunday dress, that's still the test of a Christmas Eve It's all on my sleeve So bring on the dry spell, tell me the hard truth Let's take the long way, that's what I'm used to When makin' this bet, if you're all in Put on your seatbelt, if you can't tell I can't help that I'm this way My heart goes wild and that won't change If I take this love right to my grave It's 'cause I fault how I was raised, hey Headfirst, I'm jumpin' A little dirt don't hurt nothin' I know it's worth more than gold This hand you hold, I know you know that I can't help that I'm this way I'll take you to the grave, right to the grave, yeah I can't help that I'm this way, oh I'm all in and that won't change If I take this love right to my grave It is 'cause I fault how I was raised, hey Headfirst, I'm jumpin' A little dirt don't hurt nothin'

She was a blue-eyed rebel child with a Sunday morning smile I was 17, knew everything except how to make her mine I picked her up in dad's old truck and that night I kissed her A first love grew wings while the fireflies blinked by the Tennessee River And we sang along to the radio And we danced when they played one slow Nothing better to do but fall in love And watch the old river flow Let it flow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Let it flow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh He dropped me off and picked me up again a hundred times that summer We grew up a little more every time that we saw each other I learned her middle name and her favorite color, just lying out there with her With the moon through the trees, with the birds and the bees on a Tennessee River And we sang along to the radio And we danced when they played one slow Nothing better to do but fall in love And watch the old river flow Let it flow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Let it flow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Sometimes, I take the long way home, past that cobble bridge Watch the sun go down, just think about those two stupid kids It ain't too much, but sometimes I stop and let myself miss her Where our love grew wings, yeah, I still think about the Tennessee River Yeah, we sang along to the radio And we danced when they played one slow Nothing better to do but fall in love And watch the old river flow Nothing better to do but fall in love And watch the old river flow Let it flow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Let it flow, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Water tower skylines, fields of gold Homecoming crowns on average Joes Planting family trees on the same gravel road A whole lotta nothing is still somethin' to some folks Girl painting faces, wearing push-up bras Boys talking bases ain't talking baseball There's vodka in the lemonade, pass 'round the bleachers Yeah, Momma blames the music comin' out the speakers Whoa, we're a bunch of patchwork dreamers tryin' to Hold onto to the only life they Know, we're a bunch of better believers Never leavin' either when they go They live, they ride, they just live right in the middle of America State wants an airport, they're takin' the farms Bread and butter's off the table, we're all up in arms Wrapped around our mamas, good book and cold beer Like corn watching kids growing on up outta here Whoa, we're a bunch of patchwork dreamers tryin' to Hold onto to the only life they Know, we're a bunch of better believers Never leavin' either when they go They live, they ride, they just live right in the middle of America Amazing Grace in somewhere 20 never does and someday maybe Between goin' nowhere and goin' crazy Raising hell and raising babies In the middle of America, the middle of America Whoa, we're a bunch of patchwork dreamers tryin' to Hold onto to the only life they Know, we're a bunch of better believers Never leavin' either when they go They live, they ride, they just live right in the middle Gettin' right with what they're left with Right in the middle of America The middle of America The middle of America, woo!

Honeywine, you're a sight to see Auburn hair, running 'round bare feet Cheap sunglasses and your turquoise ring Wondering what you'd see in a guy like me Well, honeywine you're a sight to see Do you recall how you got that name? You drank that shit 'til 3am Sang John Prine songs, sang harmony Tonight you got the best of me Well, honeywine you're a sight to see 'Cause you're the sweetest thing that I've ever know When the beer runs out and the whiskey's gone Honeywine, you're all I need Well honeywine, you're all I need Honeywine, well I've got big plans To put some shoes on your feet, take the turquiose off your hand Trade it out for a diamond ring Here's a kiss under a cottonwood tree I get down on one knee Said "Honeywine, won't you marry me? Let's do somethin' crazy, go one and marry me" (Ohhh) 'Cause you're the sweetest thing that I've ever know When the beer runs out and the whiskey's gone Honeywine, you're all I need Well honeywine, you're all I need Honeywine, you're the one for me Well, honeywine you're all I need

Holy sister with X-ray tan She still burns the mugwort in her hands Crazy tongue will lap from here to there I do still believe she was never scared Come and try me Gonna rattle the bars, stare down the stars Soul primary, gonna watch their hands shake Late at night we're getting Primal shapes with stick and poke Lie awake in the sleepless smoke Boats outlined in blue without deckhands All my life I knew I was not that man Come and try me Gonna stare down the stars, kiss all your scars Soul primary, gonna watch your head shake Late at night when you're spilling the Mug of broth, up in the cavalry Cut the pipe, it's allright We withstand the rip through time Deep remorse inside the shell It's a burning question should you tell Compass needle spins out of control Neither of us wins once we have been told Come and try me Gonna kiss all your scars, rattle the bars Soul primary, gonna watch their hands shake Late at night we're getting primal
