Todd Snider - Cheatham Street Warehouse lyrics

Waking up late in the afternoon An old piano playing just out of tune To the buzz of the heat through the telephone line Some kind of song about a bottle of wine I knew it was you by the sound of your feet Pushing the pedals and keeping the beat We're a million miles away from those days now You can't get away from me You can't get me wrong I know how to keep you here Where you know you belong In a song A Cheatham Street Warehouse honky tonk song The kind Billy Joe just can't get wrong I'm gonna carve my name in the bar Hope that you can hear it where you are And wherever you are I'll be hoping you know Wherever I am I'm missing you so No longer a million miles away from anything You can't get away from me You can't get me wrong I know how to keep you here Where you know you belong In a song Working on the last few lines last night Trying to find a way to make it end alright Telephone rang – it was you You asked if I was working on anything new I didn't have the heart to tell you about The one I think I'm finishing up right now No longer a million miles away from anything You can't get away from me You can't get me wrong I know how to keep you here Where you know you belong In a song
