Tishamingo Get On Back
How did this happen once again
Seems like I would have learned
No matter how good that it feels
that feeling's gonna turn
(seems like I would've learned)
I'm gonna put away my bow
and my quiver full of lies
But it's hard to give up hunting
when it leaves me satisfied
(but I swear it's just a lie)
Chorus: I've quit everything but lyin'
I promise I will do that soon
But when you look me in the eye and say you love me
what am I supposed to do
I gotta get on back from you
Lord you just keep on talkin'
the mindless chatter never ends
What a price to keep on payin'
to end up lonesome once again
(seems like it'll never end)
Just like the pills, weed, and the blow
you make the pain go away
But it's hard to break the habit
I guess I'll wait another day
(Lord I hope I don't end up this way)
Bridge: The time of reckoning has come
We both need to face the truth
You're sharin' your soul with me
and I'm just takin' from you
and you're just takin' from me
and a taker I don't wanna be
