Oh God, God, she’s really done it now,
Coked up, her body’s all spun around,
Oh yeah, yeah, she’s really done it,
And seein’ her just isn’t something I can stomach,

Back it up, back it up,
If you talkin’ shit to me,
Smack it up, smack it up,
If you act a bitch to me,
Stack it up, stack it up,
If you fuckin’ rich as me,
My daddy owns a dealership,
The rest is fuckin’ history

This ain’t a love song (oh no),
This ain’t a broken heart homie singin’ only ’cause he’s lonely,
This ain’t a love song (oh, no, no, no),
This ain’t a whiskey-drowned ballad,
There ain’t nothing here that’s valid,
So tell me baby, pretty baby, that this house is not a graveyard,
Tell me how to stay strong and carry you home,
Over corpses of her long-lost fathers and her unborn daughters,
Cause God dammit, I can’t do it alone
I can’t do it alone,
I can’t do it alone,
No, I can’t do it alone

Oh no, no, I’m not impressed with you,
Pink drinks that seem to get the best of you,
Rock late and sleep until the sun sets,
I’d talk but you took the tongue I talk with

Back it up, back it up,
If you talkin’ shit to me,
Smack it up, smack it up,
If you act a bitch to me,
Stack it up, stack it up,
If you fuckin’ rich as me,
My daddy owns a dealership,
The rest is fuckin’ history

This ain’t a love song (oh no),
This ain’t a broken heart homie singin’ only ’cause he’s lonely,
This ain’t a love song (oh, no, no, no),
This ain’t a whiskey-drowned ballad,
There ain’t nothing here that’s valid,
So tell me baby, pretty baby, that this house is not a graveyard,
Tell me how to stay strong and carry you home,
Over corpses of her long-lost fathers and her unborn daughters,
Cause God dammit, I can’t do it alone
I can’t do it alone,
I can’t do it alone,
No, I can’t do it alone

I can call you out and complain the rain is worse,
But it’s that much better if I did it in person,
I can call you out and complain the rain is worse,
But it’s that much better if I did it in person

So tell me baby, pretty baby, that this house is not a graveyard,
Tell me how to stay strong and carry you home,
Over corpses of her long-lost fathers and her unborn daughters,
Cause God dammit, I can’t do it alone
So tell me baby, pretty baby, that this house is not a graveyard,
Tell me how to stay strong and carry you home,
Over corpses of her long-lost fathers and her unborn daughters,
Cause God dammit, I can’t do it alone

I am an avid Mac-user, nerd, musician, freelancer, and gamer. Ask me about my collection of M:TG cards! I've also got a horrible habit of needing the absolute newest technological wonder, whether it's stable or not. If they made a home-version of the LHC, I'd have 2. Additionally, I've been playing music for the better part of 14 years. I'm self-taught on piano, guitar, trumpet, trombone, sax, clarinet, bass, drums and other percussion, and around 10 other instruments. I also spend quite a bit of time dabbling in synthesizers, sequencers, and samplers. I'm also founder of Quotelicious where I collect and share the quotes I love.
