I wish I could write off my time on my taxes
I'd get a lot back and I'd finally relax and
I'd take the whole family to somewhere much warmer
We'd laugh and we'd drink till we can drink no more and
I'd finally get to see my mama drunk
She's such a hard worker but doesn't know when to have fun
And dad and I'd play catch like when I was young
Spent more time with him in one day back then than I do in a month
And I think maybe this is how it always has been
Maybe I've been swimmin in a deeper ocean
Cuz I been drownin, sinkin in a pool with my sins
Maybe I could stand to lose a couple more friends
Wish I could write off my time on my taxes
Cuz I'd spend way more of it at family gatherings
I'd call my cousins and talk to them all day
How you been feelin, are you doin okay
I don't see them anymore
Only when someone dies
Or gets married
Of course
And I think maybe this is how it always has been
Maybe I've been swimmin in a deeper ocean
Cuz I've been drownin, sinkin in a pool with my sins
Maybe I could stand to lose a couple more friends
And I don't got too many
But the ones I do are plenty
And I'm startin to think that's alright
Yeah I don't got too many
But the ones I do are plenty
And I'm startin to see that that's fine
And I think maybe this is how it always has been
Maybe I've been swimmin in a deeper ocean
Cuz I've been drownin, sinkin in a pool with my sins
Maybe I could stand to lose a couple more friends
Yeah I don't got too many
But the ones I do are plenty
And I'm startin to see that that's fine
And I think maybe this is how it always has been
Maybe I've been swimmin in a deeper ocean
Cuz I've been drownin, sinkin in a pool with my sins
Maybe I could stand to lose a couple more friends
