The Mercury

Lorrie laughs like she just don't care Got a red bandana and raven hair Sitting in the corner at The Mercury Cowboy killers in a plain white tee And back before the glasses and the sleeve tattoos She's just another small town kid Sure she's gotta couple problems now But she doesn't try to keep 'em hid Her kind of loving is a little like a fist fight Alright, alright The kind of thing you never see before midnight Girl, I know you're gonna wreck this town Won't tell me where to be when the walls start falling Well I've never seen Jimmy in that old Corvette He looks like hell but he ain't dead yet Rough around the edges but his clothes are clean Hayseed dressed up like James Dean And any way I play it well I can't get him to say it But I think that him and Lorrie were a thing Well come now that I think about it He don't say much of anything Her kind of loving is a little like a fist fight Alright, alright The kind of thing you never see before midnight Girl, I know you're gonna wreck this town Won't tell me where to be when the walls start falling Well, it's 1 AM and wild and loud Like sittin' in the middle of a funnel cloud A five-spot for a shot and a beer Now do you wonder how we wound up here I tell you friend that every now and then It's like a money game of cut throat pool Lorrie's talking just a little too sweet to me Jimmy's in the next bar stool Her kind of loving is a little like a fist fight Alright, alright The kind of thing you never see before midnight Well it's throwback punks and daytime drunks And PBR's and stouts Lorrie's over by the jukebox now Dancing to the "Twist and Shout" And Jimmy's storming out the front door Lord you'd think someone had died I ain't going anywhere at all Now I'm about to hit my stride Her kind of loving is a little like a fist fight Alright, alright The kind of thing you never see before midnight Girl I know you're gonna wreck this town Won't you tell me where to be when the walls start falling Girl I know you're gonna wreck this town Won't you tell me where to be when the walls start falling Girl I know you're gonna wreck this town Won't you tell me where to be when the walls start falling Girl I know you're gonna wreck this town Won't you tell me where to be when the walls start falling down --- The Mercury - Turnpike Troubadours
