Testo di 'Flathead Lake' di The Mccoy Tyler

They're dealin' cards in the back room
I don't wanna go back there
They're drinkin' their beers and they're shootin' the shit
At the bar but I don't even care

My baby left me on Tuesday
And I've been gettin' drunk since then
By Saturday morning if I'm not around
Then I'm probably in the gutter again

Talkin' shit about Jesus
And the boys that wanna brawl at night
I can't believe it
I'm too old to put up a fight
So take it or leave it, kid
But I ain't gonna stand in your way
'Cause I know that you'll be here
Someday

The dark waters of Flathead Lake freeze over in the winter time
And I don't know why but I feel like that water
Whenever she crosses my mind

And sometimes when the sun goes down
I just sit out on the docks and drink
Waitin' on the whiskey to patch my heart
Like the holes in my old blue jeans

And talkin' shit about Jesus
And the boys that wanna brawl at night
I can't believe it
I'm too old to put up a fight
So take it or leave it, kid
But I ain't gonna stand in your way
'Cause I know that you'll be here
Someday
Someday
You'll be here someday
You'll be here someday

I'll be home when the sun comes up
I'll never see the light o' day
It's a shame baby you left me here
In a place that I could never stay

The dark waters of Flathead Lake
Ain't got nothin' left to do with you
It's just me and the fishes drinkin' up the water
With nothin' better to do

But talk shit about Jesus
And the boys that wanna brawl at night
I can't believe it
I'm too old to put up a fight
So take it or leave it, kid
But I ain't gonna stand in your way
'Cause I know that you'll be here
Someday
