lyrics

She’s always leaving early And she always shows up late
She’s a good one still trying, lets no good time slip away

Gives a bear hug in the morning Breaks up fights outside of bars
Takes her whiskey neat
her coffee cheap
And never liked her scars

He's wrestled down his demons
Broke the fall of all his friends
Quotes the Bible and the Koran has the heart of fifteen men

Never wonders what you’re doin Never needs the words to say
There’s some good ones still trying
Lets no good time slip away

Let no good time slip away
Keep on tryin

1 Slow danced with an opera singer On the stage after the show
Prays the same prayer every supper Rolls his cigarettes real slow

Keeps a knife inside her pocket Keeps a pen inside her coat
Keeps her words close to her heart Keeps that letter that she wrote

He can calm a newborn baby Saved his own life in a flood
Been tied up by Chinese pirates Spent the night in his own blood

Hung a hammock in the jungle Loved one woman all his days
There’s some good ones still trying
Lets no good time slip away

Let no good time slip away
Keep on tryin

Punched a hammerhead in hog sty she was looking for a fight
Only tells her stories if you Stay up late into the night

Danced for rain with the Apache Had hell’s angels on his side
Took confession from a cardinal Held him down and made him cry

The first one you call on
The last one by your side
Hugs the soldiers in the airport Not one for long goodbyes

He’s not afraid of cryin
Never one to look for praise
There’s some good ones still trying
Lets no good time slip away

Let no good time slip away
Keep on tryin

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness
