lyrics

Chemicals and neon down at Cozy’s Bar & Grill
We could all hear that jukebox humping and we couldn’t get our fill
Molotov cocktail in stained glass gliding up to me
My mouth felt just like a cotton ball and this is what came to me
I’ll be Meadowlark Lemon if you can swing like a sweet cowgirl
I can shoot and dribble while you wear those boots and spurs
I’ll be Meadowlark Lemon and shoot a hook shot true and sure
Let’s all sing Sweet Georgia Brown and dance right out the door
She was no church Christ woman and I was swimming on a fiery lake
She loved those words rolling off my tongue and so, I sang ‘em every night and day
I’ll be Meadowlark Lemon and shoot a hook shot true and sure
Let’s all sing Sweet Georgia Brown and dance right out the door
It’s been more than a year now since she vanished and dropped that bomb
She left me here high and dry with nothing but a song
I’ve been sitting in a booth in Cozy’s every day since she’s been gone
And everybody here well, they know my story and they all sing along
