Here I am again, perfect timing
The strings are ringing and the words are rhyming
I used to hate the fool in me, but only in the morning
Now I tolerate him all day long
Out on the highway I hear the moaning
That low and lonesome whisper you only know from longing
Through those naked trees at the windows glowing orange
Taking over that cold shoulder racing by
I might have known before
If I'd got this old before
I thought I got too cool to give a damn
That who you see in dreams at night
Seem to spend their afterlives
Trying hard to live the last one down
Here I am again, perfect timing
The strings are ringing and the words are rhyming
I used to hate the fool in me, but only in the morning
Now I tolerate him all day long
Perfect Timing was written by Mike Cooley.
Perfect Timing was produced by David Barbe.
Drive-By Truckers released Perfect Timing on Tue Jan 22 2008.
Every time I hear “Perfect Timing,” I pick up on something new in it. It’s really a grower and a really good performance. John Neff did a great job with the acoustic guitar solos.
