Mama's grippin' on her hip on the fifth of May
In a photo Daddy took on a humid day
In a town that's anyone's guess
Way out in western Kentucky
She's broken-hearted as he's ridin' away
On a motorbike out to East L.A.
To find a white line, it's such a fine line
Between broken and lucky
Gettin' high's easy, gettin' drunk's fine
It's the gettin' by that'll get a soul down
So if you need me, know that I'm bleedin'
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
Some coastal town
I can feel when your body ain't in this bed
I can still hear you laughin' last spring in my head
Now it's April and I hate you, and I'm headin' home
Little notes that you left for me
In coat pockets and cabinetry
Are in a shoebox, when we once talked
Back when I felt free
Gettin' high's easy, gettin' drunk's fine
It's the gettin' by that'll get a soul down
So if you need me, know that I'm bleedin'
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
Some coastal town
Mama's grippin' on her hip on the fifth of May
In a photo Daddy took on a humid day
In a town that's anyone's guess
Way out in western Kentucky
Gettin' high's easy, gettin' drunk's fine
It's the gettin' by that'll get a soul down
So if you need me, know that I'm bleedin'
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
Some coastal town
Gettin' high's easy, gettin' drunk's fine
It's the gettin' by that'll get a soul down
So if you need me, know that I'm bleedin'
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
Some coastal town
