derby day - todd snider lyrics
[verse 1]
susan, you are a jewel
about the rarest i’ve ever seen
i wish i could polish off
all the edges of my craziest dreams
but you know the way i am
there’s nothin’ that you can do
if there’s anything you don’t want me to do
just go ahead and tell me to
[chorus]
it must have been one h-ll of a starry night
the moon was so bright
it must’ve knocked out all of your lights
i guess that’s the night that you fell for my silvery line
[verse 2]
everything we do is backwards
you know that ain’t a lie
you love, i love, you love
ah, you know you know i love your beautiful eyes
but i can’t pay you back, no
i can’t make it up with a song
so i guess i’m here tryin’ to tell you that
i missed myself while you were gone
[chorus]
it must have been one h-ll of a starry night
yeah the moon was so bright
it must’ve knocked out all of your lights
i guess that’s the night that you fell for my silvery line
[verse 3]
yeah, you always picked the winners
every derby race
i guess you just picked on me
for a little bit of change of pace
so go on, shake your hair, let it loose
run ’til you p-ss the wind
i’ll be runnin’ right in front of you
tryin’ to rein myself in
[chorus]
it must have been one h-ll of a starry night
the moon was so bright
it must’ve knocked out all of your lights
i guess that’s the night that you fell for my silvery line
[outro]
susan, you are a jewel
the rarest i’ve ever seen
i wish i could polish off
all the edges of my craziest dreams
