Good Girl Down the Road Lyrics by Kyle Nix

Lightning on the Mountain and Other Short Stories

0

Well, she says that she don't drink
That she dumps his whiskey down the sink
But I've seen her put away some Old Crow
Bright as a flower, soft as rain
Tongue with a cuttin' Dust Bowl twang
And she wears a ring, the good girl down the road
Been close with Johnny since we was 12
With our single-shot rifles, raisin' hell
We got stories that nobody knows
We still get together for some cards and beer
When the work week's through and we're free & clear
And he's only a stone's throw down the road
Johnny had a bottle he'd tucked away
He tossed the cap like a bride's bouquet
And laughed, "You ain't leavin' 'til this sucker floats"
We dealt and we drank 'til I stumbled to go
Then there she was like a Bright Red bow
Smiling at me through the door
The Good Girl down the road
Well, I was full of cheap gin and my wishful thinkin'
But I swear that her eyes were cheatin'
And now I can't let it go...
She's the Good Girl down the road
Rose in the mornin' as slow as molasses
Felt around for my sunglasses
Last night sinkin' in like melting snow
And now I'm gettin' flashes of her big brown eyes
And they're lightin' up all kind-a wildfires
Fillin' my mind with stupid thoughts and hopes
For the Good Girl down the road
Well, I was full of cheap gin and my wishful thinkin'
But I swear that her eyes were cheatin'
And now I can't let it go...
She's the Good Girl down the road
Johnny & I knew her in curls
Before Docs and Tommy Girl
She's had me since 1991
Oh, but my buddy's got himself one silver tongue
On a river road, hours away
Sits a pine cabin in post oak shade
The woman on the phone says she'll let me know
I gotta get myself out of this county
The lines are blurring all around me-
Gonna break out the big bottle of Old Crow-
Gonna raise a few glasses 'fore I go-
To the Good Girl down the road
Well, I was full of cheap gin and my wishful thinkin'
Well now I know that her eyes were cheatin'
And now I can't let it go...
She's the Good Girl down the road...
The Good Girl down the road
