Original tune written by The LV Pussyfooters.
lyrics
I got whiskey on my breath and on my clothes
And not too many places left to go
So I guess I’ll pack it in and head on home
That place I go to cry when I’m alone
And it got too hard to stop
Praying I don’t see ya’ out with him
So I’m goin where I never thought you would
That’s why I skipped and left this town
But now I miss them cardinals singin in the wind
And that bluegrass stickin through my toes
I gotta pretty little girl just hangin on my arm
But she don’t know me like you do, babe (X3)
And I’m flyin’ down them back roads again
And I’m fuckin’ with them unforgivable sins
I hold my head up high so I don’t choke
On that pride that I’m struggling to chug
But now I miss them cardinals singin in the wind
And that bluegrass stickin through my toes
I gotta pretty little girl just hangin on my arm
But she don’t know me like you do, babe (X3)
And I once dreamt of children with you (but now you got your own)
And I’m wakin’ in the dead of the night (all alone)
I smoked all the brains from my head (and guess what)
Still all I see is you
But now I miss them cardinals singin in the wind
And that bluegrass stickin through my toes
I gotta pretty little girl just hangin on my arm
But she don’t know me like you do, babe (X3)
No, She don’t know me like you do, babe
