DeAnn's Denim

Оригінал

DeAnn's Denim dress has got a dandelion scent

That drifts with her as she rounds the door

I saw a photograph, if not from 8 then 10 years back

Of a birthday cake with a lit-up 24

And I miss the times I'd drink

'Cause I'd never overthink

And I never gave into this lore

You ain't Jesus Christ 'cause you don't think twice

Sunday, when you pass the liquor store

Time changes all you'll see

Did you become what your mama wanted you to be

And are you strong enough to stay away from family genes

Cause DeAnn's Denim was a stubborn thing

Cause DeAnn's Denim was a stubborn thing

I recall a letter that she sent to me on base

When I was out playing patriot

She said she was leaving the house, headed out

And finally had the nerve for facing it

The genes that her daddy left were worked in and vintage

Proctor's daddy did the same

He said I could change my suit and tie

Pray all night to Jesus Christ

But he'd belt my ass if I changed my name

Cause time changes all you'll see

Did she become what her daddy wanted her to be

Was she strong enough to stay away from family genes

'Cause sometimes Denim is an ugly thing

Well, sometimes Denim is an ugly thing

DeAnn's Denim dress has got a dandelion scent

That drifts with her as she rounds the door

Cleaned out the closet, found some closure

When I threw those old blue jeans on the floor

I cleaned out the closet, found some closure

When I threw those old blue jeans on the floor

Cleaned out the closet, found some closure

When I threw those old blue jeans on the floor
