Jason Isbell Lyrics

"Codeine" lyrics


There's one thing I can't stand
Is this barn is covered …
Trying to fake their way through castles ain't the same
There's one thing I can't stand
There's one thing I can't take
It's the sound that woman makes
Not 5 seconds after heard begins to break
That's one thing I can't stand
She should be home by now but she ain't
I should know by now but I can't
Cause one of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine

Then her eyes is big as stars
When I saw you by the bar
I guess that's the way you keep on smile where you are
But girl reminds biggest stars

It sounds funny when you say my name
It's like a … on a foreign thing
You won't get to sleep till dawn and feel no rain
You sound so funny when you say my name
You ought to come home tonight with me
Wish we knew how to find the way …
Cause one of your friends is taking me in and giving me codeine
One of your friends is taking me in and giving me codeine

Darling I'm not the one to judge
If I was then I'd say you don't look so good
Got no answers up my home, with you gone the place looks bigger than it should
If there's 2 things that I hate
Tavern to cook and trying to date
Bust our ass out …hurry up and wait
That's a few things that I hate
If my call tonight … still be something
Cause one of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine
One of my friends is taking her in and giving her codeine.
