Common Shiner
Rosalyn
You were a girl with impossible dreamsAnd I was just living beyond my meansThe presidents warred and the generals criedAnd so many good things shriveled and diedAnd now like a hurricane, you come and you goAnd I pray the levees will ever holdBecause love is a battlefield and you are the gunBefore I can draw, you've already wonSomeday I'll be over youSomeday please come soonThe children outside think that life's just a gameAnd I wish that the clouds would stop spelling your nameYou came like a soldier prepared for the thrillIf this whiskey doesn't kill me, then you surely willSo I moved to Georgia to start over newThe beautiful girls, they all looked like youBut they all want more, and I'm just a drunkAnd all I can give is never enoughSomeday this'll all be doneThat someday can't come soon enoughThe children outside think that life's just a gameAnd I wish that the clouds would stop spelling your nameLetras de cancionesYou took all from me until you had your fillIf this whiskey doesn't kill me, then you surely willImagine my surprise when you walked in tonightIt felt like the bar turned out all the lightsYou said you were gone, but your dreams had all drownedAnd I'm still a poor boy, but in a new townWe both found Jesus in crazy waysAnd spent all our Sundays singing his praiseWith all of our efforts, we're both still aloneAnd suddenly this bar felt like homeOh, life's just a gameOh, life's just a gameDespite all my troubles, I love you stillIf this whiskey doesn't kill me, then you surely will.
