Marry Me (Live at Flicker Bar - Athens, GA - June 20th, 2002)

[?] (Haha, hahaha)

[Verse 1]
Well, my daddy didn't pull out, but he never apologized
Rock and roll means well, but it can't help tellin' young boys lies
A baby on the way's a good enough reason to get you out alive
Get you out without havin' to swallow any pride

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
All my friends are restless, all they do is talk it down
Two or eight lanes, it don't matter, it's just another town
There's a fool on every corner, on every street, in everyone
And I'd rather be your fool nowhere than go somewhere and be no one's

[Chorus]
So marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me?
Your mama thinks I beat anything she's ever seen (Ow)
Well, this old town's alright with me, there's nowhere I'd rather be
Long as they stay mad at one another, well, they can't get mad at me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
And every time I leave here, something bad happens to me
Like a busted hand or findin' some man laying where I sleep
She don't mean nothin' to me, that's just how it goes 'round here
It's a cartoon town, I played my part and I ain't spoke'd her name in years

[Chorus]
So marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me?
Your mama thinks I beat anything she's ever seen
Well, this old town's alright with me, there's nowhere I'd rather be
Long as they stay mad at one another, well, they can't get mad at me
Come on

[Bridge]
I don't want anything I done to be nobody's fault
Even if they got more money and mouth than they got balls
That's just how it went down, right or wrong, it's just that way
And just 'cause I don't run my mouth don't mean I got nothin' to say

[Guitar Solo]
This is where the guitar solo is
[?] chorus

[Chorus]
Marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me?
Your mama thinks I beat anything she's ever seen
This old town's alright with me, there's nowhere I'd rather be
Long as they stay mad at one another, well, they can't get mad at me

[Outro]
So marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me?
Marry me, sweet thing, won't you marry me?

[Segue]
Thank you
(Yeah)
Ladies and gentleman, do y'all not know Jason?
Yeah, woo
(The new guy?)
Jason Isbell? (Jason [?])
Hi, Jason
He ain't all that new no more, we got him all broke in now
([?] gone)
Thank God
(He's from the—)
Well, we only call him "The New Guy" when it's convenient
