Yesterday’s Smoke (Unplugged) Lyrics by Payton Smith

Up From Here

2024

[Verse 1]
Grandaddy had an act for sittin' on the back porch Zippo lighter and a pipe
Reminiscing on the years sippin' on a couple beers talkin' about his life
I asked him one time if there might be a time he might have a regret or two
He said ain't a damn thing worth a damn thing sittin' in that rearview
[Chorus]
You could get baptized in the Mississippi River
Find a little life down an old dirt road
Make the kind of love that might last forever
But you can't get high on yesterday's smoke
Oh you can't
[Verse 2]
All the hangin' on to grudges all the wish I hadn't done its
Boy you better leave that behind
You can't go back and fix it, gotta go on livin'
Get it while you still got time
That dog don't hunt that fish won't bite
If you live in the past it'll pass you by
[Chorus]
Get baptized in the Mississippi River
Find a little life down an old dirt road
Make the kind of love that might last forever
But you can't get high on yesterday's smoke
On yesterday's smoke
[Bridge]
The sun and the moon don't stop
We're all runnin' on the same damn clock
[Chorus]
You could get baptized in the Mississippi River
Find a little life down an old dirt road
Make the kind of love that might last forever
But you can't get high
Can't bury your bones in the Mississippi River
Whiskey ain't gonna let up my let go
Can't find forgiveness if you ain't a forgiver
And you can't get high on yesterday's smoke
