Corey Kurtz - So, I Guess I'll Tell You Twice
текст песни

Well, I was waiting for that bus,
I was waiting at that station.
You know my love,
Oh, she likes to keep me waiting.

And, the transit it will come,
But you know I won't be there.
I'll be heading on that bus,
Off to God only knows where.

Through the mountains and the village,
Well I'm a singing to the people.
My hand keeps a strumming,
But my voice it ain't so stable.

The years on the road,
I was looking for the half.
That half never showed,
So I began to tap.
Tapping out these songs,
Oh, one after another.
Thinking she would rise,
So we could be together.

Now I will be the first,
And she will be the last.
Spend the time you like,
Not the time of your past.

Oh, I was strumming to the crowd,
Singing out my druthers.
Keep them girls close,
You better watch out for their brothers.

Well, one day at a show,
She looked me in the eye.
I gave a subtle wink,
But what met me with surprise.
Was, the half I never expected,
The half that never died.
My searching it was over,
Well, I almost began to cry.

Straight up outta the ground,
She came to me a gunning.
Slapped me right there in the face,
Well I should of started running.
Feeling better than the day,
That I asked her to be mine.
These things you don't expect,
Yea, they'll catch you by surprise.

And, sure as shit her brother,
He came running down that aisle.
Put a bullet in my head,
At least I'm going out in style.

And here I am,
Well I'm looking six feet up.
I chuckled and I laughed,
Oh, the dirt she did chuck.
Well, "over my dead body",
Don't they all say.
Well, this song is here to tell you,
You ain't that far away.

And I've said, bury me in the river,
And bury me without a stone.
Just don't bury me in the churchyard,
Next to the other souls.

So, I guess I'll tell you once,
Maybe twice if you'll listen.
Never kiss a girl,
That just ain't worth kissing.
Cover up your tracks,
And leave no trace behind.
For the brother I never knew about,
He sentenced me to die.

Oh, take me in a bottle,
And take me in a show.
Throw me in a ditch somewhere,
And let the howling winds a blow.
Don't care if you don't mean it,
Don't you open up your heart.
You've cried enough for the both of us,
Now let this music be the start.
