lyrics
Verse 1
I'm a better man since you walked away
And I know that's what you expect me to say
But the truth is, baby I don't have the time
To mourn the days that you were mine
Like a broken record on the same old tune
I'm pullin' off the needle, I'm through with you
Gonna spend tonight across the state line
Gonna find me an Okie, gonna maker her mine, 'cus I'm
CHORUS:
Brokedown in Bricktown, honey
Got two flat tires and I drank all my money
Gonna find me a place with a bed and four walls
And hope that I'm better off, better off after all
Verse 2:
These whiskey shakes will be the death of me
I look in the mirror, hate what I see
The crows parading across my face
Are the scars of the frowns I could not erase
And my hair is thinning, my back is bent
Every penny I've made is ten dollars spent
But I'm finally free from your sorry ways
What better way to spend today than
CHORUS (2X)
