If there's one thing I can't stand It's this bar and this cover band Trying to fake their way through 'Castles Made of Sand'. That's one thing I can't stand. If there's one thing I can't take It's the sound that a woman makes About five seconds after her heart begins to break. That's one thing I can't take. She should be home by now but she ain't. I should've gone by now but I cain't. One of my friends has taken her in and given her codeine. One of my friends has taken her in and given her codeine. Them eyes was big as stars When I saw you behind the bar. I guess that's the way to keep on smilin' where you are. But girl them eyes was big as stars. It sounds funny when you say my name. It's like you're chewing on a foreign thing And you won't get to sleep 'till dawn if it don't rain. It sounds so funny when you say my name. You oughta come home tonight but you won't. I wish we knew how to fight but we don't. One of your friends has taken you in and given you codeine. One of your friends has taken you in and given you codeine. Darlin' I'm not one to judge But if I was then I'd say you don't look so good. Got no answers of my own But with you gone, this place looks bigger than it should. If there's two things that I hate It's having to cook and trying to date. Busting ass all day to play 'hurry up and wait. That's a few things that I hate. If I call when I ain't drunk This old boat'll still be sunk 'Cause one of my friends has taken her in and given her codeine. One of my friends has taken her in and given her codeine. One of my friends has taken her in and given her codeine. One of my friends has taken her in and given her codeine.
