Tex “The Rock” Johnson (Live at The Black Heart)

And there I was getting splinters from a barstool
And who are you to judge?
I’ve tried my very best
I’m canceling today
I know I shouldn’t stay too long
But I have to carve my name into the bar
It shouldn’t take too long

And here I am
Waking up like a ghost
Scowling at the daytime glow
Cold sheets and regret
I once was young
But that was then

I slither out of bed and catch a cab
To my one true love, I know she’ll remember
My honest eyes
And my crooked smile
And how I love you more than the ocean loves to drown
More than my throat could make it sound

Virgil Van Dyke is actually our number one

I slither out of bed and catch a cab
To my one true love, I know she’ll remember
My honest eyes
And my crooked smile
And how I love you more than the ocean loves to drown
More than my throat could make it sound

More than the ocean loves to drown
More than my throat could make it sound
More than bridges love to burn
More than death when he gets his turn
More than the ocean loves to drown
