6th Of October

歌詞

I threw up this morning in Christiansburg, VA I drove down from PA, slept in my van And I can still taste the whiskey From the last fool that kissed me And the people who miss me I can count on one hand He missed by a mile, a Paso Fino caballo That girl in Ohio With hair black as coal She was charmed for a moment By a circus clown poet And, boy, did he blow it and she let him go Reckless hearts The tattered and bruised ones The slightly confused ones The ones holding stools down in bars Show up and find us And gently remind us To not be ashamed of our scars Or who we are I've been saying I was sober Since the sixth of October But all that was over When I heard him say There's a friend you been missin' With a fifth in the kitchen We started sippin' and he faded away Reckless hearts The tattered and bruised ones The slightly confused ones The ones holding stools down in bars Show up and find us And gently remind us To not be afraid of our scars Or who we are So just live in the rhythm And the rhymes when you get 'em And the notes when you miss 'em 'Cause you drank all night long In all of his runnin' He showed me somethin' That dyin' ain't nothin' And I can't prove him wrong
