[00:02.40]
[00:15.76]She said Andy you're better than your past
[00:19.06]
[00:20.24]Winked at me and drained her glass
[00:22.62]
[00:23.74]Cross-legged on the barstool
[00:25.99]Like nobody sits anymore
[00:28.75]
[00:31.49]She said Andy you're taking me home
[00:35.12]But I knew she planned to sleep alone
[00:38.68]
[00:39.80]I'd carry her to bed and sweep up
[00:43.00]
[00:47.75]The hair from the floor
[00:50.52]If I hadd f**ked her before she got sick
[00:54.41]I'd never hear the end of it
[00:58.55]She don't have the spirit for that now
[01:02.00]
[01:03.07]We drink these drinks and laugh out loud
[01:07.02]Bitch about the weekend crowd
[01:10.59]
[01:12.23]And try to ignore the elephant somehow
[01:16.18]
[01:18.75]Somehow
[01:20.13]
[01:30.73]She said Andy you crack me up
[01:33.62]
[01:34.87]Seagrams in a coffee cup
[01:37.63]
[01:38.87]Sharecropper eyes and her hair almost all gone
[01:43.78]
[01:46.29]When she was drunk she made cancer jokes
[01:49.17]She made up her own doctor's notes
[01:52.99]
[01:54.32]Surrounded by her family
[01:56.88]I saw that she was dying alone
[01:59.33]
[02:02.22]I'd sing her classic country songs
[02:05.16]And she'd get high and sing along
[02:08.86]
[02:10.07]She don't have much voice to sing with now
[02:15.13]
[02:17.64]We'd burn these joints in effegy
[02:20.53]
[02:21.30]Cry about what we used to be
[02:24.43]
[02:25.24]And try to ignore the elephant somehow
[02:28.19]Somehow
[02:33.84]
[02:37.03]I buried her a thousand times
[02:40.67]
[02:41.35]Giving up my place in line
[02:43.74]
[02:44.68]But I don't give a damn about that now
[02:49.14]
[02:51.96]There's one thing that's real clear to me
[02:56.04]No one dies with dignity
[02:59.49]We just try to ignore the elephant somehow
[03:05.01]
[03:07.39]We just try to ignore the elephant somehow
[03:12.79]
[03:15.28]We just try to ignore the elephant somehow
[03:20.44]
[03:23.24]Somehow
[03:24.36]
[03:25.00]Somehow
