Dovetail Lyrics by H.C. McEntire

Every Acre

2022

[Verse 1]
Some women come knockin'
Some come without callin'
Tear right through the ticker tape
Some sober and sunkissed
Blushed, barely cussin'
Eat only after they pray
Some dog-ear the best bits
And dovetail the sunsets
And never get caught in the rain
Some dress for the darkness
Want only the artist
And leave at the first light of day
[Verse 2]
Some fast, sweatin' diesel
With fistfuls of pain pills
Sure as a steeple is high
Some starvin' for fathers
And couldn't be bothered
Steal away your precious time
Some lookin' for trouble
Leave nothin' uncovered
And chase their whiskey with wine
Some dress for the darkness
Want only the artist
And change all you had in mind
[Chorus]
Sometimes she leaves you like a landslide
Sometimes she's a toward tall and strong
Not all will want to have their hands tied
And some will never want you gone
[Bridge]
Some dog-ear the best bits
And dovetail the sunsets
And never get caught in the rain
Some dress for the darkness
Want only the artist
And leave at the first light of day
[Chorus]
Sometimes she leaves you like a landslide
Sometimes she's a toward tall and strong
Not all will want to have their hands tied
Some will never want you gone
Sometimes she leaves you like a landslide
Sometimes she's a toward tall and strong
Not all will want to have their hands tied
And some will never want you gone
