Whiskey Myers – Houston County Sky lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pour me up a drink, there's a bottle in the seat
I’m only halfway to crazy by now
We're past that breaking point, past that road of choice
And there ain't nothing left in this town
I thought by now I’d've figured shit out

You and me, we got some bad reputations
We dance 'round like thieves in the night
I bet your halo could use some reconsideration
But it's the only thing that makes this alright

[Chorus]
Heaven knows time ain't slowing down
Yeah we still kick around
Our same ol' stomping grounds
And life, it'll pass you by
As you drink all through the night
Under a Houston County sky

[Verse 2]
So roll me up a smoke, I'll take a toke for hope
I’m only halfway to 80 by now
You was the peanut queen, I was 17 and mean
You wanted so bad to leave this town
Ain’t it funny how it all works out

Ain't nothing left but making love and raising babies
There ain’t nothing wrong with the simple life
Hey darling, I love you, but the smoke is gettin' hazy
Maybe we should just get drunk and fight
Down at The Gin on a Saturday night

[Chorus]
Heaven knows time ain't slowing down
Yeah we still kick around
Our same ol' stomping grounds
And life, it’ll pass you by
As you drink all through the night
Under a Houston County sky

[Chorus]
Heaven knows time ain't slowing down
Yeah we still kick around
Our same ol' stomping grounds
And life, it'll pass you by
As you drink all through the night
Under a Houston County sky
A Houston County sky
A Houston County sky
