A. Savage - Ladies From Houston lyrics

[Verse 1] When the night sun stops tryin’ If it dims without fightin’ In a chorus of midnight Dark flowers from the shadows Like the ladies from Houston Walk into my house Drink coffee and talk softly Drink wine and speak loud Back at me [Chorus] Got a full ring of keys again Now that I’ve Got a full ring of keys again Thirty years paid in disdain As I rented the room That my ghost became [Verse 2] Yeah she raised me like I was her own flesh and blood And she came when I cried and I wasn’t embarra**ed Well I knew enough Spanish to interpret eschew As an on confrontation when it’s quickly removed and lifted [Chorus] Got a full ring of keys again I have got a full ring of keys again Time is a feral cat’s prowl Blind and lost to the faith Without fear or doubt [Verse 3] Sig stepped in the quicksand And it’s not like you think Sig waited with commitment But he didn’t start sinking Said, “I’d fallen in line, and a few times in love And I’ve raised my voice at folks, I thought I was above Like a fool.” [Chorus] Got a full ring of keys again Now that I’ve Got a full ring of keys again Scratching glyphs into the gla** Of the men’s room mirror To reflect my wrath [Verse 4] Uncle Marty was troubled At least that’s what I heard And now he’s dead or in prison He’s gone but not missin’ But I remember the birthmark The speedy tattoo And the words that he chose And the way his lips moved to make them [Chorus] Got a full ring of keys again I’ve got a full ring of keys again Nothing lies further from truth Than the words from the one Who says solace soon [Verse 5] What’s the purpose if there is one? For this televised demon? But a sadness I feel When he pollutes the screen Pour the beer in the fridge Which has halfway been tasted That I put to my lips so it doesn’t get wasted or drank [Chorus] Got a full ring of keys again I’ve got a full ring of keys again
