Austin (Boots Stop Workin')

We had a plan

Move out of this town, baby

West to the sand

It's all we talked about lately

I'd pack the car, bring your guitar, and Jane for smoking

First thing at dawn, you'd queue the songs, and we'd get going

But you weren't home

Waited on the porch for ya

Sat there alone

All throughout the morn'

Till I got a hunch down in my gut, and snuck around the back

Empty cans and I'll be damned, your shit was never packed

Did your boots stop workin', did your truck break down? (Truck break down)

Did you burn through money, did your ex find out? (Ex find out)

Where there's a will, then there's a way, and I'm damn sure you lost it

Didn't even say goodbye, just wish I knew what caused it

Was the whiskey flowing, were you in a fight? (In a fight)

Did the nerves come get you, what's your alibi? (Alibi)

I made my way back to LA, and that's where you'll be forgotten

In forty years, you'll still be here, drunk, washed up in Austin

A hell of a bluff

You had me believin'

How many months

Did you plan on leaving?

What happened, bad habits?

Did you go back, go batshit?

I loved you, how tragic, oh

Did your boots stop workin', did your truck break down? (Truck break down)

Did you burn through money, did your ex find out? (Ex find out)

Where there's a will, then there's a way, and I'm damn sure you lost it

Didn't even say goodbye, just wish I knew what caused it

Was the whiskey flowing, were you in a fight? (In a fight)

Did the nerves come get you, what's your alibi? (Alibi)

I made my way back to LA, and that's where you'll be forgotten

In forty years, you'll still be here, drunk, washed up in Austin

Did your truck break down?

Did your ex find out?
