[00:15.06]She said, “Andy, you’re better than your past”
[00:20.09]Winked at me and drained her glass
[00:23.52]Cross-legged on the barstool, like nobody sits anymore
[00:31.38]She said, “Andy, you’re taking me home”
[00:35.38]But I knew she planned to sleep alone
[00:39.47]I’d carry her to bed and sweep up the hair from the floor
[00:47.13]If I had fucked her before she got sick
[00:51.53]I’d never hear the end of it
[00:55.34]She don’t have the spirit for that now
[01:02.77]We just drink our drinks and laugh out loud
[01:07.45]Bitch about the weekend crowd
[01:10.90]And try to ignore the elephant somehow
[01:18.38]Somehow
[01:21.25]
[01:23.47]
[01:29.93]She said, “Andy, you crack me up”
[01:34.56]Seagrams in a coffee cup
[01:38.50]Sharecropper eyes and her hair almost all gone
[01:45.97]She was drunk, she made cancer jokes
[01:50.08]Made up her own doctor’s notes
[01:54.01]Surrounded by her family, I saw that she was dying alone
[02:01.87]I’d sing her classic country songs
[02:05.70]And she’d get high and sing along
[02:09.66]She don’t have a voice to sing with now
[02:17.04]We’d burn these joints in effigy
[02:21.35]Cry about what we used to be
[02:25.07]Try to ignore the elephant somehow
[02:32.18]Somehow
[02:36.64]I buried her a thousand times
[02:40.87]Giving up my place in line
[02:44.07]But I don’t give a damn about that now
[02:51.58]There’s one thing that’s real clear to me
[02:55.93]No one dies with dignity
[02:59.13]We just try to ignore the elephant somehow
[03:07.08]We just try to ignore the elephant somehow
[03:14.86]We just try to ignore the elephant somehow
[03:22.42]Somehow
[03:26.67]Somehow
