Screen door cracked The ballgame on Man on the porch singin' baritone Tan line leads to that gentle place Between her collarbone and her stone-cold face Dock hand boys all say goodbye To the women that they swear are gonna be their wives They'll be gone by the wintertime And they don't wanna bother with...

Rail-tie worker, I've been layin' ties on coal in the ground But I'm leavin' this evenin' on the same tracks I laid down There's some boys out in Jersey that are calling me out by name I got a reason to believe I ain't glory bound anyway And if you're reading this letter, tell my...

Queen-size mattress on an old oak floor And I don't see the need in closing the screen door I wanna hear the birds when the day finally comes How I fear all my days of being young are done Or only just begun How close can a man come to God before dyin'? 'Bout as...

(One, two, three four) Well, the buildin's out in Brooklyn are taller than the clouds And I don't like who I am Sunday mornin', comin' down Tequila out in Texas is tougher on the tongue Than the devil that I met in Oklahoma when I's young I miss that old ball cap you stole from...

Rotgut whiskey's gonna ease my mind Beach towel rests on the dryin' line Do I remind you of your daddy in his '88 Ford? Labrador hangin' out the passenger door The sand from your hair is blowin' in my eyes Blame it on the beach, grown men don't cry Do you remember that beat down...
