Different Woman

lyrics

JOLENE.(different woman)

Over, over your shoulder your devil rides looking much older and all tired out and his red eyes. I'm so glad he’s under the weather and you look good and you feel better let us never feed him medicine. While I printed maps of these united states you went of to get your brakes checked and we fecked off in your Honda accord. Jolene we’re calling from Austin I think we just found Dolly Parton we had to call and you know why. And the billboards are all pro life and they say that I’ll be saved if I am too but that’s a lie that ain’t true. Historic walks in brand new cities are so short and so confusing so you’re amusing yourself painting little murals on the postcards meant fir Europe but ill just call when I get home. And so I thought of Dublin and of Kavanagh by the canal, the lonely man.
Long old day the beers are deserved and heat and booze and I'm a pervert but you are too it’s what we do best. And rest there in the afterward with our cigarettes on the floorboards like we don’t know they invented clothes. And as we’re leaving Jacksonville and that building that all reflects the sky the clothes are high and you’re all smiles . And Jolene she’s a different woman and I think that she might make it all the way , Live to see another day.
