matthew logan vasquez - tall man lyrics

Loading...

well, he stumbled out
the tall man from oklahoma
yes, he had his doubts
whether he should drive or try to spend the night
in the back of his car
well he didn’t get far
he blacked out in the yard

he woke up in the gr-ss
underneath the stars
like a knife in the head
he thought that he was sober enough for this
he called his dad and told him what he thought of him
“well dad, these shoes i fill
well, they’re all covered in shit
you took the goodness in my life and then you buried it”

he didn’t get a reply
the landline clicked and then he started to cry
the same old dad back in ’98
when he had run away
for about a month or so
hitchhiked to san antonio
his daddy didn’t notice
that he ran away

about a minute went by
the maglite beamed directly to his eyes
the gated community of his father’s estate
they pushed him in the wind
and behind the wheel
what did the neighbors think?
hell, andy and june have got a drunk for a son

as he swerved down the road
he said life is like a mirror, yes, it’s getting old
i recognize that man from my younger years
the one who thought he could change
white knuckle promises broken
and the drink had stayed the same

but i know i can change, yes i know i can change
i know i can change, yes i know i can change
i know i can change, yes i know i can change
well, i know i can change, yes i know i can change
