the years - bj barham lyrics
[verse 1]
well, momma’s got a mexican boyfriend
he stole her car once or twice before
he got busted at the best budget inn
i found my way to the door
couldn’t take any more
lived with my sister and her second husband
south of the river and off the grid
i went to work with my cousin
just like the rest of us kids
i tried to keep it all hid
[chorus]
and it seems so long ago
swore i’d never let it show, but i kinda did
and the years, they can slip away
when you’re tryin’ to get away, but i never did
[verse 2]
i got tirеd of country livin’
tried to make a new batch of friеnds
it’s hard to give when there’s no givin’
i stuck my thumb in the wind
nothin’ against my kin
i headed back to where i started
p*wned everything that i could p*wn
i guess i thought they’d be open*hearted
they never knew that i was gone
i just kept movin’ along
[chorus]
and it seems so long ago
i swore i’d never let it show, but i kinda did
and the years, they can slip away
when you’re tryin’ to get away, but i never did
[verse 3]
i work the day and the nightlife
i drill the bars and i drill the ground
one for pay and one for the good times
one of ’ems still hanging ’round
i put the other one down
[chorus]
and it seems so long ago
i swore i’d never let it show, but i kinda did
and the years, they can slip away
when you’re tryin’ to get away, yeah, i finally did
[outro]
thank you, thank y’all so much
