Lyrics
0:00Well it's cold and you're bored
0:05From counting the smart cars on 94
0:09When you dream you're back home
0:14But the lake I don't trust you to walk alone
0:19Hollow trees talk of hand
0:23All the neckties are toasting with empty cans
0:28And you know why she's gone
0:33Clothes in the river drifting on
0:38Slide down south
0:42Cause once in a while your confidence leaves you
0:46Like smoke falls out her red mouth
1:31Well she left you the holes
1:36The tracks in the back yard December snow
1:40But those sad souvenirs
1:45They end at the fenceline and they disappear
1:49Why you'd follow her there
1:54Milwaukee's a deaf ear for winter prayers
1:58There's no night there's no day
2:03With only hope in your pocket and hell to pay
2:09Slide down south
2:12Cause once in a while your confidence leaves you
2:17Like smoke falls out her red mouth
Well it's cold and you're bored From counting the smart cars on 94 When you dream you're back home But the lake I don't trust you to walk alone Hollow trees talk of hand All the neckties are toasting with empty cans And you know why she's gone Clothes in the river drifting on Slide down south Cause once in a while your confidence leaves you Like smoke falls out her red mouth Well she left you the holes The tracks in the back yard December snow But those sad souvenirs They end at the fenceline and they disappear Why you'd follow her there Milwaukee's a deaf ear for winter prayers There's no night there's no day With only hope in your pocket and hell to pay Slide down south Cause once in a while your confidence leaves you Like smoke falls out her red mouth
