lyrics

If I could I'd take you out and we'd ride around this town.
We'd trade blood for blood in paper cups and you could hang me up again.
But if you never made your mind up, darling, I'm amazed.
You fold a paper plane, you're born again, you wake up every day and you grow.
But if I ever break this town I'm gonna pick you up again,
I'm gonna fill up the tank of my pickup truck with a quarter from a can.
I'm gonna ride down to the desert with my guitar and a tent
and once I'm there I'm gonna breath that air, I'm gonna fill my lungs again.
But you know I miss my mother and my old dog and my old friends and my pain.
I'm gonna build myself a house out there on a little plot of land.
I'm gonna finally ask you if you'd marry me, wrap a band around your hand, and I'm gonna be just like my father. I'll build all the things that I have.
and I'm gonna sit down and write you a letter. I'll tell her how proud I am.
And one time when she called me I was nearly brought to tears.
She said she'd mostly thought of me the whole time she were there. And I've never truly made my mind up why it brought me here.
Now blood on blood, I raise my cup and you know how much I care.
But you know I miss my mother and my old dog and my old friends and my shame.
