lyrics

I got my heart on the mend
Going drinkin' again
Just sitting at the bar with the Ray-Bans on
You know I, can only pretend
That you didn't break my heart
Oh, honey won't you start me up
Just shake those hips, and keep the truth from your lips
You know it's just a country song


'cos you never loved me then
And sure as hell it won't be now
We're fading out like a Neil Young song
Oh the embers of fires gone
Oh the embers of fires gone

Don't stop me thinking out loud
Honey it's all I got now
Just give me a chance & I'll be mouthing off
A little too smart by half
And now you got the crowd
Eating out of your hands  
You pull those moves just to catch my breath
Oh won't you keep your shit to yourself

'cos you never loved me then
And sure as hell it won't be now
We're fading out like a Neil Young song
Oh the embers of fires gone
Oh the embers of fires gone

I got my heart on the mend
Going drinkin' again
Just sitting at the bar with the Ray-Bans on
You know I, can only pretend
That you didn't break my heart
Oh, honey won't you start me up
Just shake those hips, and keep the truth from your lips
You know' its just a country song

'cos you never loved me then
And sure as hell it won't be now
We're fading out like a Neil Young Song
Oh the embers of fires gone
Oh the embers of fires gone
Oh the embers of fires gone
