Lyrics
0:11I can see the sky for miles
0:14I can see that time so clear
0:17When you told me forever
0:19Was a word that I should not fear
0:22I can see you driving and smoking
0:25Virginia Slims on the dash
0:28On that day I was crying
0:30You stopped the car looked back
0:32You said
0:33Boy get the message
0:36This ain't no New York City
0:38Born and bred in West Texas
0:41Raised you to be different
0:44No matter how it ends
0:46No matter all your sin
0:49I hope you will understand
0:52When I leave you better be a good man
1:00I can see that house in the summer
1:03Baseball in the yard
1:06And when my knees got bloody
1:08You told me keep playing hard
1:11I remember mass on Sundays
1:14Collared up to the ten
1:17You were so d**n faithful
1:19Even if it all was a mess
1:22And in those years that we weren't speaking
1:25When I was drinking for some meaning
1:28You called me on the phone and then you said
1:33Boy get the message
1:36This ain't no New York City
1:38Born and bred in West Texas
1:41Raised you to be different
1:44No matter how it ends
1:46No matter all your sin
1:49I hope you will understand
1:51When I leave you better be a good man
2:04You better be a good man
2:17And it's so hard to imagine
2:19What I'll do without you here
2:22As you gaze your eyes towards mine
2:24Tell me to wipe away those tears
2:27You say Jesus loves you
2:29Always will no matter what you've did
2:33And in that moment I'm a kid again
2:38You said
2:42Boy get the message
2:44This ain't no New York City
2:46Born and bred in West Texas
2:49Raised you to be different
2:52No matter how it ends
2:54No matter all your sin
2:57I hope you will understand
3:00When I leave you better be a good man
3:12You better be a good man
I can see the sky for miles I can see that time so clear When you told me forever Was a word that I should not fear I can see you driving and smoking Virginia Slims on the dash On that day I was crying You stopped the car looked back You said Boy get the message This ain't no New York City Born and bred in West Texas Raised you to be different No matter how it ends No matter all your sin I hope you will understand When I leave you better be a good man I can see that house in the summer Baseball in the yard And when my knees got bloody You told me keep playing hard I remember mass on Sundays Collared up to the ten You were so d**n faithful Even if it all was a mess And in those years that we weren't speaking When I was drinking for some meaning You called me on the phone and then you said Boy get the message This ain't no New York City Born and bred in West Texas Raised you to be different No matter how it ends No matter all your sin I hope you will understand When I leave you better be a good man You better be a good man And it's so hard to imagine What I'll do without you here As you gaze your eyes towards mine Tell me to wipe away those tears You say Jesus loves you Always will no matter what you've did And in that moment I'm a kid again You said Boy get the message This ain't no New York City Born and bred in West Texas Raised you to be different No matter how it ends No matter all your sin I hope you will understand When I leave you better be a good man You better be a good man
