[Verse 1]
Turning the ten and two with you
Sailing this silver canoe
Warm beer breath and a plastic ring
Ash on your arm
laugh when it stings
Blowing smoke and chasing dragon
One small slip and you’re off the wagon
You say you’re fine
eyes like a busted bar sign
Fingernails red from the last good time
[Chorus]
Cunt tree
country and western, babe
Boots in the ditch
and a Bible to wave
Sing hallelujah with a mouth full of fear
Cunt tree
country and western right here
[Verse 2]
Is George straight or a postcard lie
Pinned on the wall of your daddy’s high
Sunny quaalude bar you ate at noon
Said it felt like God
and a motel room
You twirl that ring on your calloused hand
Say “this ain’t hell
it’s a cover band”
Laugh till you cough
and you spit on the floor
Tip the band once
then you ask for more
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
We got cheap salvation in a paper cup
Gas station Jesus and a pickup truck
You say, “If this is wrong
then wrong’s my tune”
Kick the door open
howl at the moon
[Chorus]
