Tyler Childers

Snipe Hunt
I flung the door open and let the heat rise To heat up the world 'cause I thought it was mine And all the while, all my plants froze inside 'Cause there's only so much to go 'round And it took me some tries and a whole lot of kindlin' But when the lesson arrived, it only took me a minute To learn, there was some things better off freezing I can name you a few that I've found Hate is a thing that can poison your veins And get in your eyes when you're sweating on stage Shifting around for a clock on the wall To tell you it's almost over Vans, they keep rollin' and times for the birds To chirp in your ear on the rumors they heard Flyin' above all the good in this world Shittin' on cattle and clover Now, when I was a young boy, I thought I could track And an old timer sat down and wretched me this sack And he told me all the knowledge I lacked On an ornery thing called a snipe Picked me up on a Friday, and he dropped me and Charlie Letras de cancionesTold me when he'd be back, and he went off to party And I sat on the hill like Jeremiah Johnson I froze my dumb ass off all night That's the way that I feel when I look at our past And the handshakes you gave me, if you're callin' them that And the snickers you tried to pass off as laughs And the way your eyes never met mine Paranoia is a thing that you're making when sleep Ain't a thing you recall, ain't a habit you keep One ol' boys' nightmare is another folks' dream It's all in the way that you hold her Hotels are lonely, I reckon I know I spent many a night in between shows Lookin' at paint as it dried on the wall On a booger you just painted over Life reminds me of a card game we played as a kid Where you're layin' down the deck until you got to the end Early on, there's a joker got lost 'neath the fridge Over time, all the queens moved in with him And I'd say the boy had him an absolute ball But he ruined the card game for all us involved And I let it take me over like kudzu in Georgia And I hope I don't do that again From Letras Mania
