[Verse 1]
Your friends were thrilled to get to know me
Tailgate night down at Tallahassee
I was always rooting for your hometeam and hell, it ain't like me
Now it's crazy, I was just calling you baby
I'm still missing you, oh, oh no, hell no
I remember when the lights come on
[Chorus]
God damn angel, Nashville classy
Think it's crazy that you never thought to ask me
Why I'm burning bars like an ashtray
You would think that life be better in the fast lane
Gonna have a good time with my friends or somethin'
Tell a 'tender "Leave the bar tab running"
Your words cut deep but the whiskey doesn't
A little Ole Red never hurt nobody
[Verse 2]
Do you still put sugar in your ice tea?
You said "Life's too short to drink it unsweet"
We were younger then, do you remember way back when?
We be sitting by the dock
Was listening to Florida Georgia sipping on strong ones
Down in Southern Carolina, hangin' at your mama's, not moving on
At least not 'til that whiskey's gone
[Chorus]
God damn angel, Nashville classy
Think it's crazy that you never thought to ask me
Why I'm burning bars like an ashtray
You would think that life be better in the fast lane
Gonna have a good time with my friends or somethin'
Tell a 'tender "Leave the bar tab running"
Your words cut deep but the whiskey doesn't
A little Ole Red never hurt nobody
[Bridge]
A little Ole Red never hurt nobody (Nobody, nobody)
No
[Chorus]
God damn angel, Nashville classy
Think it's crazy that you never thought to ask me
Why I'm burning bars like an ashtray
You would think that life be better in the fast lane
Gonna have a good time with my friends or somethin'
Tell a 'tender "Leave the bar tab running"
Your words cut deep but the whiskey doesn't
A little Ole Red never hurt nobody
