Hayes Carll - Knockin Over Whiskeys

keep knockin' over whiskeys, no one's laugin' at my jokes They got me spinnin' round in circles like a tin can in the spokes When I left town this mornin' with a smile upon my face Ahh, babe, I swear I never knew I'd end up in this place

Chorus:
Run away little darlin'
You don't need me anymore
I've been out here for too long
It ain't like it was before

If I get back home to Houston, I'm gonna tip my hat and cry When I left I was a younger man, too proud to say goodbye I'm gonna wake up in the mornin' with a conscience ten feet tall I'm gonna lay my head down wiser or I won't lay down at all

Repeat Chorus

You used to live out on the border where no one else could reach Now I can't ask a question without you givin' a speech You said, "I never cared." Babe, you know that isn't true It's just the only thing you asked of me was the one thing I can't do

Repeat Chorus
