The Damn Shames - Hickory Switch Lyrics

It's so hard to tell what shape that I'm in
From the back of the bar and through your whiskies and gin
Now don't be alarmed by this shit eatin grin
The likes of you on my arm would be considered a win
I said, hey, take me home, baby
Love me good, then leave me alone
Could've swore she was royal like the queen of California
Where them girls are just a little too stoned
Let's talk in truth now and call this what it is
Won't be long now, we'll take it by the inch
Just some stranger you leave with in a pinch
She's cuttin a rug all night with the band
Ain't worth a damn after two a.m
And I'm spending the rest of my life in her bed
Whipped like a hickory switch
I'm feeling just a little guilty
Cause I won't tell my friends
This secrets weighing on my heart like a ton
And I got a million different reasons not to see you again
But honey, all I need to leave with you is one
Just tell me the truth now and nothing in between
Could this somehow be more than just a fling
I could be your lover and you could be my queen
She's cuttin a rug all night with the band
Ain't worth a damn after two a.m
And I'm spending the rest of my life in her bed
Whipped like a hickory switch
Yes, I am
She's cuttin a rug all night with the band
Ain't worth a damn after two a.m
And I'm spending the rest of my life in her bed
Mama yeah
She's cuttin a rug all night with the band
Ain't worth a damn after two a.m
And I'm spending the rest of my life in her bed
Whipped like a hickory switch
Now it's so hard to tell what shape that I'm in
