After six or so
I walk on down the hill
And maybe buy a beer
I think about my friends
Sometimes I wish
They lived out here
But they wouldn't
Dig this town
No they wouldn't
Dig this town
Chorus
Try not to think about it
Alice childress
Try not to think about it anymore
Try not to think about it
Alice childress
Anymore,
No not anymore
No
Alice the world
Is full of ugly things
That you can't change
Pretend it's not that way
That's my idea of faith
You can blow it off
And say there's good
In nearly everyone
Just give them all a chance
Give them all a chance
Chorus
No it didn't work out
No it didn't work out
The way we thought it would
No it didn't work out
An arranged marriage
Is not so good
Thank god it's you
You know your timing is
Impeccable
I'm not fooling you
I don't know what to do
Some dude just knocked me cold
And left me on the sidewalk
Took everything I had
Everything I had
Try not to thing about it
Alice childress
Try not to think about it anymore
It's getting light where you are
Alice childress
Anymore, no not anymore
Anymore, no not anymore
Some summers in the evening After six or so I walk on down the hill And maybe buy a beer I think about my friends Sometimes I wish They lived out here But they wouldn't Dig this town No they wouldn't Dig this town Chorus Try not to think about it Alice childress Try not to think about it anymore Try not to think about it Alice childress Anymore, No not anymore No Alice the world Is full of ugly things That you can't change Pretend it's not that way That's my idea of faith You can blow it off And say there's good In nearly everyone Just give them all a chance Give them all a chance Chorus No it didn't work out No it didn't work out The way we thought it would No it didn't work out An arranged marriage Is not so good Thank god it's you You know your timing is Impeccable I'm not fooling you I don't know what to do Some dude just knocked me cold And left me on the sidewalk Took everything I had Everything I had Try not to thing about it Alice childress Try not to think about it anymore It's getting light where you are Alice childress Anymore, no not anymore Anymore, no not anymore Explain Request ×
