Lyrics: Jason Isbell
Music: Jason Isbell
She said Andy you're better than your past
Winked at me and drained her glass
Cross-legged on the barstool
Like nobody sits anymore
She said Andy you're taking me home
But I knew she planned to sleep alone
I'd carry her to bed and sweep up
The hair from the floor
If I hadd ****ed her before she got sick
I'd never hear the end of it
She don't have the spirit for that now
We drink these drinks and laugh out loud
***** about the weekend crowd
And try to ignore the elephant somehow
Somehow
She said Andy you crack me up
Seagrams in a coffee cup
Sharecropper eyes and her hair almost all gone
I buried her a thousand times
Giving up my place in line
But I don't give a damn about that now
There's one thing that's real clear to me
No one dies with dignity
We just try to ignore the elephant somehow
Somehow
Somehow
