me & mcalevey - walter martin lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
hey mac, you’ll never guess what happened while you were away
what’s been happening to you started happening to me
i found your old letters
shoved inside high tide and green gr-ss
last night
and i hope you don’t mind
but i stole the opening line for a song of mine
and mac, it’s true
if i could write like you
well i’m sure sometimes i’d go a little cuckoo, too

[verse 2]
i know the winters are hard in maine
and your songs about lobstermen
well i know they don’t pay
but it’s hard down here, too
trying to make a living writing about snakes and c-ckatoos
and it made me mad
when they used your song in that volvo ad
and you barely got a dime
i said “matt, it’s not fair”
you said “walt, i really don’t care”
as you filled out your w-9

i know your irish heart is strong
and rich with rhymes and n-ble lines from ancient songs
but again it comes undone
and the dumb rum just rots your gut and twists your tongue

now with a marble in my throat
i watch those ferryboats
and b-tton high my long black coat
’cause the season ends
and summer friends
leave for the mainland
yeah, the season ends
but old dogs like us, my friend
we ain’t going nowhere, man

yeah the season ends
and summer friends
leave for the mainland
the season ends
but old dogs like us, my friend
we ain’t going nowhere, man
we ain’t going nowhere, man
