I’ve never been one for cigarette smoke But my nerves are shot I need an antidote My mouth is dry like the summer in the south She’s stickin to her guns and I’m down and out So goodbye Lily I’m gone for good Packed up my things like I said I would The road is dark and I can barely see Goodbye Lily no more leaving me Well she called me up last night at 3 She said it hurts like hell being left by me My love for her was like aged alcohol
The older it grew the harder I’d fall So goodbye Lily I’m gone for good Packed up my things like I said I would The road is dark and I can barely see Goodbye Lily no more leaving me Well I’ve tossed and I’ve turned I’ve broken down but I’ve learned I swerved off the road trying to catch my breath I’ve been runnin on fumes and runnin half dead It’s nothing new it’s rather old instead Cause runnin from you is like runnin from d**h
