Gotta write a kiss-off song every once in a while...to stay honest.

Did You Ever Know Me Girl?

Big 'ol heart dragging on the ground
suckers and bloodshot eyes abound
the golden rule heading back outside
to dry the tears of those who cry
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me

Empty pockets but a bursting head
pray for the living and bury the dead
piggy back rides and the army bell
like dropping coins in a wishing well
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me

We're born and die but what's in between
is the stuff that mostly goes unseen
like the thoughts that pass inside the head
and what goes on in a lover's bed

Farewell good riddance and all that stuff
I'll play for keeps but I won't play rough
call it a lack of nerve or the scorn in love
that rouses itself when push comes to shove
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me

We're born and die but what's in between
is the stuff that mostly goes unseen
like the thoughts that pass inside the head
and what goes on in a lover's bed

Big 'ol heart dragging on the ground
suckers and bloodshot eyes abound
the golden rule heading back outside
to dry the tears of those who cry
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me
did you ever know me girl?
did you ever know me
