lori mckenna – i know you lyrics
you never woke up beside a stranger
but you never spent the night alone
in your jacket is a flask of southern comfort
in your pocket you got a comb,
i know you – i know you.
you’ve been pushed right to the limit
lived on a lonesome road
chopped up an old pine dresser
to heat the house once in the cold,
i know you – i know you.
d.h. lawrence would be your favorite poet
if you thought poetry was cool
you have too much pride to be a thief
and just enough gut to be a fool,
baby i know you, i know you.
i know where you go when you want to be alone
i know just how hard you work
and how much money you bring home
you love the sound of church bells
but you hate sitting in the pew,
baby, i know you.
i know the sound of your thunder
and i know the smell of your rain
i know every time you walk out that door
you might stumble back in it again,
i know you – i know you.
i know that you feel bad
for every bad thing that you do
you got a scar on your right cheek
and the fear of god embedded in you
your mother had a wooden spoon
and a shamrock tattoo,
yes i do baby blue, i know you.
well, no other woman’s gonna feel beneath
the skin that you are in
no other woman’s gonna read your mind
or be sorry for your sins,
i know you – i know you.
i know what you look like just before you cry
i know how to make you sick
and i know how to make you die
the only thing i could never do
is let you say goodbye,
cause i know you – i know you.
you never woke up beside a stranger
but you never spent the night alone
in your jacket is a flask of southern comfort
in your pocket you got a comb…
