about

This tune is about a trip to Nashville.

Played a bum gig, got very drunk on multiple occasions and just wanted to be home in my own bed, next to the woman I love.

lyrics

I woke up at dawn
Pulled my kicks on
Had myself a smoke
I got in the car

It's Easter morning
In East Nashville
And here I am
Telling stories at the bar again

The blood in my mouth
Turns bitter with each whiskey
I wonder if the miles between us
Are enough to make you miss me

On a long ride home
I'll see you again; then
I'll be home

Drink a double, have a smoke
Drink another; make a joke
About the girl making eyes
At the boy telling lies

The blood in my mouth
Turns bitter with each whiskey
I wonder if the miles between us
Are enough to make you miss me

On a long ride home
I'll see you again; then
I'll be home
