Ashley Monroe Lyrics
Monroe Suede Lyrics
Mama played piano in a Pentecostal church
Staring them snakes in the eye.
Daddy died drunk left us all in the lurch
Hell I did what I did to get by
I did what I did to get by
3rd Grade education wont bring you no luck,
When you're looking for a way to get paid.
Turned 14 and stole a pick up truck,
Couldn't make it on minimum wage,
Couldn't make it on minimum wage.
Well I almost got caught in Tulsa Town
Had me one foot in the grave.
Oh they're gonna die trying to track me down
But they'll never catch Monroe Suede,
No they'll never catch Monroe Suede.
Well you can't stay long when you're living on the run
and the high sheriff's looking for you.
Never shot nobody with a loaded gun
but I found me a lover or two.
Well I almost got caught in Tulsa Town
Had me one foot in the grave.
Oh they're gonna die trying to track me down
But they'll never catch Monroe Suede,
No they'll never catch Monroe Suede.
Mama still plays piano in that same old church
Hoping those sinners get saved.
Daddy died drunk left us all in the lurch
and the call me Monroe suede.
Well I almost got caught in Tulsa Town
Had me one foot in the grave.
Oh they're gonna die trying to track me down
But they'll never catch Monroe Suede,
No they'll never catch Monroe Suede.
They'll never catch Monroe Suede.
