proper john – bookgirls lyrics

i was just a kid tryna live by the book
whipping down country roads with creekside overlooks
always staying positive no matter how it looked
remembering the outcome’s really just the outlook

she was just girl doing makeup in the mirror
driving like a pro; she use her knee to steer
and under eye concealer tryna cover up the bags
swerving in a whip that’s repping out of state tags
old pictures on the dash, sock tans and razor rash
f-nny pack to stash the cash, cupholders full a trash

a hundred miles off, i’m nodding off, trying not to crash
and i’m wearing too many colors; i’m too tired to know what clash
and my shaver died on the drive, gonna rock the stash
the summer lasts forever till it’s over in a flash

the attraction never happened ’till we were back in our home cities
and i noticed for a moment that our closeness made her pretty
especially at the freddies getting ready to watch me win ’em
gazing at me waving from the stage when i’d go get ’em
company paid vacays, short stays at seminars
never far, ever are any rooms from the bar
she’d follow me to come see how it goes, yeah
tryna pull of my close

and i was blue about it when red she chose in mexico
wearing green, feeling too green to let her go
i think my face kinda let her know, yeah
cause she let him go
oh oh oh oh
she let him go
(dumb kids, still dumb, sh-t’s messed up)

to keep it a secret between us we mutually chose
the scandal of candles on mantels of firewood stoves-
not quite the real thing, but so close to it
nothing’s permanent in company ink, but ya can’t undo it
no no

and we were just some kids
tryna live by the book
always positive that it
didn’t matter how it looked
the outcome’s the outlook

we were just some kids
tryna live by the book
always positive that it
didn’t matter how it looked
the outcome’s the outlook

we were just some kids, yeah
tryna live by the book
always positive that it
didn’t matter how it looked
the outcome’s the outlook

we were just some kids
tryna live by the book
always positive that it
didn’t matter how it looked

and seeing her on sunday meant more than units
couldn’t wait to escape to the storage unit
and put blankets on the boxes
and get naked in the darkness

we were just some kids
tryna live by the book
always positive that we weren’t just some dumb -ss kids
