What I Really Get to Do

Lyrics

I left some shots unsunk, well more than a few

‘Til she racked ‘em up, knocked me straight like a solid ‘ole pool cue

Even all the bricks in the Great Wall to try and count the ways

Can only hope to sink the 8 Ball if ya’ got four quarters to play

I got sick ‘a writing sad songs ‘bout my whiskey worn out shoes

Must be doin’ somethin’ mad wrong, paintin’ only shades of blue

Didn’t take long to shed her light, and the spectrum colors flew

Like a gong rang to aim my might towards more virtue… more virtue

Well she gave me some lovin’, and then she gave me more

Loved on me so damn much, it sure ‘nuff left me sore

Ain’t nothin’ quite as powerful like a love that’s new

You mean this is what I really get to do? Spend my time with you

No more need in makin’ up imagined songs to sing

Damn sure knocked that mattress off the ‘ole boxspring

Steal away with me now, let’s tear off the dusty trail

Across the ‘ole ravine now, on the cross-ties & rusty rails

Well she gave me some lovin’, and then she gave me more

Loved on me so damn much, it sure ‘nuff left me sore

Ain’t nothin’ quite as powerful like a love that’s new

You mean this is what I really get to do? Spend my time with you
