Townies

Original

Catchin' up with the townies

Some have gone, but most are still around

The ghosts of them surround me

They hang on tight until they drown

Met you in the neighborhood you had

Connects to get us high and then

You sent my nudes around

I never yelled at you about it

'Cause you

Died

Died

Went to a party in the county

Stokin' bonfires with leaf blowers

He got you in the back of his car

Just your sneakers and your drawers

Group of girls went around tellin'

Everywhere you fooled around

And gave you a strong

Reputation for being someone always

Someone always

Down

Down

Off I-40

Crawled into your life, begging on my knees

And I get it now

You were 16 and bored and drunk

And they're just townies

I catch up when I'm in

Up when I'm

Around

Around

Around
