Her sixth track on ‘Bury Me at Makeout Creek,’ this song encapsulates the feeling of being in a relationship on its last limb, having lived out the honeymoon phase and coming into the harsh winter where it will, inevitably, die.
[Verse 1]
It's a windy afternoon, can't afford to buy my food

[Verse 2]

Oh, I miss when we first met, he didn't know me yet
[Chorus]
So take me out, baby
Makes no difference where we'll be
As long as we're out in the sun
Take me out, baby
[Post-Chorus]
(As long as we're out in the sun)

But please under the light of day
Take me out, take me out
[Outro]
Take me out, baby
Take me out to–
