Second Time Around
Second time around you know its really got me down
Sister, dont you judge it, keep it to yourself now
If you aint got nothin good to say, dont say nothin at all
Got bitten by the bitter bug and
I just cant get enough
Ill will and my own concedin, weary of the world it seems
Im weary of the world, weary of the world it seems
Sort of always come my way
Im just a little bit off these days
Like the hard knocks saw in my life like
Im a Bible belt wife
Like I didnt see it comin, like
I didnt walk in and leave
See I never wanna sing again, la, la, la, like a butterfly
Out my wits about me, out my heart in line
Third times a charm, this is mine
You said you heard
Loretta sing
And you felt the loneliness seepin in
Cowboys made you uneasy youre a god-fearin lesbian
So you learn not to yearn and you take it on the chin again
Heres what
I find about compromise, dont do it if it hurts inside
Cause either way youre screwed
Eventually youll find that you may as well feel good
You may as well have some pride
Come August well go to
Cherokee and hear
Loretta do her thing
Pack it into the
Indian casino and make the hillbilly scene
Kick up our heels and join in
Are you my ally or my enemy?
Do you have self-loathin or empathy?
Can you keep me in your prayers?
Sister, can you keep me in there somewhere?
And sister, if you aintgot nothin good to say
Don't say nothing at all
