I tried so hard not to find the peculiarities
In her heart
There were broken pieces underneath it
But I tried
To slip it, trip it to the back of my mind
Boy, I could do better
But she would never let ya
Marry me
Jesus Christ, you must be joking
You're just 23, girl, what is that?
Oh, this ain't me
Sunday morning, drinking black tea
Paying well for hate
And you're just leading the way
Try it, you would wanna buy it
Take a ride on Sunday, you'd be home by Monday
You'd be sipping tonic, you'd be getting on it
Like you did in 1986 with Dixie
It's tragic, you'd be straight erotic
Though you never said it, she knows you always thought it
Wasn't ever the same for me
As it is for you
So, thinking back again
Before we were just emotionally tragical
It was cozy and carefree
So, do not speak
Don't listen to what my mind is making
I bet that's not worth delaying
A story that's not worth delaying
Try it, you would wanna buy it
Take a ride on Sunday, you'd be home by Monday
You'd be sipping tonic, you'd be getting on it
Like you did in 1936 with Dixie
It's tragic, you'd be straight erotic
Though you never said it, I know
Wasn't ever the same for me
Never the same for me
As it is for you
A quality
It's not to what you feel is familiar
For you it's just about me and me
A dignity
Sated in your shallow water
The taps run dry
You're drowning in your gin and tonic
Try it, you would wanna buy it
Take a ride on Sunday, you'd be home by Monday
You'd be sipping tonic, you'd be getting on it
Like you did in 1986 with Dixie
It's tragic, you'd be straight erotic
Though you never said it, she knows you always thought it
Cause she's like a mother, don't you even bother
You're just wasting your time
Try it, you would wanna buy it
Take a ride on Sunday, you'd be home by Monday
You'd be sipping tonic, you'd be getting on it
Like you did in 1986 with Dixie
Try it, you would wanna buy it
Take a ride on Sunday, you'd be getting on it
Like you did in 1986 with Dixie
Like you did in 1986 with Dixie
