The Night Before
I shot my mouth off the night before
Like a beast whose cage has a broken door
Yes, it's true
It's true
It's true
On a mission to race the sun
Full tank engine twenty-one
Such a fool
A fool
A fool
Someone gave me a four-leaf clover
I looked both ways threw it over my shoulder
I stayed for the witching hour
The best time for growing flowers
I shot my mouth off the night before
Like a tractor across a concrete floor
Yes, it's true
It's true
It's true
Led the horses to the run
Left the gate open thirty-one
Such a fool
A fool
A fool
Every time I swing and miss
I can't back down I can't resist
Cause I'm dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Yes I'm dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Another week another forty hours
Another cheap shot calling me coward
Someone gave me a four-leaf clover
And now I have to look over my shoulder
Every time I swing and miss
I can't back down I can't resist
Cause I'm dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Yes I'm dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb
Licking blades and kissing guns
Another week another forty hours
Another cheap shot calling me coward
I shot my mouth off the night before
I should've quit but I wanted more
Yes, it's true
It's true
It's true
Time moves quick when you're having fun
But the jokes on you, you're forty-one
Such a fool
A fool
For you
