Lyrics:
We'll take the copper from the work site
Meet me here at midnight
They ain't got a camera or a guard
Write my own prescription
If I can't get a fix, son
shit's about to get real hard
Molly don't believe me
Says she's gonna leave me
The kids won't even know my name
Put a gallon in the stepside
With a little help
by morning I won't feel no pain
Never thought I'd wind up
this far behind
Just a couple years back we had it made
I was emptying my bladder
on a 20-foot ladder
Should have climbed down and found myself some shade
The doctor took a quick look
I got out the checkbook
and left with a pocket full of pills
Now my back's still hurting
and I'm too weak for working
and I can't keep up with all the bills
She used to wake me up with coffee every morning
and I'd hear her homemade house shoes slide across the floor
She used to make me feel like the King of Oklahoma
but nothing makes me feel like much of nothing anymore
I was all set up to do it
but some bastard beat me to it
Ain't a copper pipe left on the lot
Got a loan out on the truck
but I'm running out of luck
and the title is the only thing I've got
Molly's gonna leave me
Says she don't believe me
I got nothing left to lie about
She's going back to Bixby
Tired of trying to fix me
Says I got some shit to figure out
She used to wake me up with coffee every morning
and I'd hear her homemade house shoes slide across the floor
She used to make me feel like the King of Oklahoma
but nothing makes me feel like much of nothing anymore
She used to wake me up with coffee every morning
I'd act like I was sleeping til she walked back through the door
She used to make me feel like the King of Oklahoma
but nothing makes me feel like much of nothing anymore
