Shoestring - Patrick Sweany

Don’t go treating her bad!

Cuz she pack and lose ya

Like a middle way cruiser with her fix in the bag;

Soon be hitting the map.

Put some breaks on that rig.

Well your hot under collar

And you want me to follow

Down the hole that you dig.

Move around like a pig

Whoa oh whoa oh

I just wanna be king fish in some pond

Whoa oh whoa oh

Hope the strength of my youth isn’t all gone!

Whoa oh whoa oh

Aint nuthin quite like the real thing

Whoa oh whoa oh

All tied together with shoestring.

Say a pray for the van

Hearing knives through the floorboards

And I’m thinking oh lord

And sayin', «oh man!»

How much more can you stand?

It’s a sin and a shame

That a spring and 10 summers and,

It just feels like a bummer,

No one knows your name.

You got no one to blame

Whoa oh whoa

Just wanna king fish in my pond

Whoa oh whoa oh

The strength of my youth isn’t all gone!

Whoa oh whoa oh

Aint nuthin quite like the real thing

Whoa oh whoa oh

All tied together with shoestring.

I just wanna go back

Cuz (I) sure miss Ohio

And this Tuesday lifestyle isn’t making a scratch.

Aint no prizes for that

Whoa oh whoa oh

Aint nuthin quite like the real thing

Whoa oh whoa oh

All tied together with shoestring

Whoa oh whoa oh

Just wanna be king fish in some form!

Whoa oh whoa oh

Most think of my youth as in all gone!

Oh baby, don’t pray.
