40 Bucks (Demo)

Lyrics for 40 Bucks (Demo)

40 bucks and her favorite band She stayed out too late again The band's back in Birmingham She didn't go to work again She's always been a pretty big fan Certain songs get scratched right in When morning comes round again The sadness crashes down and she said When he first came unto me, it sounded kinda like a symphony They were hearts and horns and winds and warm and wet This morning when the band left town, it bummed me out like a birthday clown Some many drinks and sticks in the sleight of hand 40 bucks and her favorite band When mother in '70s Leather vests and the Dungarees Her bio-dad played bass guitar In a five-piece out of Wichita They had a little local hit You can find it on the internet They made her on the night they met In a motel made of cigarettes She's never even met the dude But she heard the song and it was pretty cool It was sad, slow waltz about a pure and simple love There are days when she gets fatigued She's pretty old for this music scene And our dreams sing-a-long to the music of our youth 40 bucks and her favorite groups She doesn't really do it much But she could probably get some party stuff Say, she doesn't really do it much She could probably get some party stuff She doesn't really do it much, she could probably get some party stuff She barely even knows the guy, but she's pretty sure stoppin' by And when he calls her back, she says, "that she will cover it" She says, "I know you don't make much money yet, I know it mostly goes to cigarettes" And I'll let us, conquest wasn't all that famous yet He took 20 from her warlock when she left And then he left
