Ride to Robert's

[Verse 1]

Everything's green right now

Tennessee at the end of June

You get a day to come down

We'll ride to Robert's in the afternoon

Before the room gets packed

We'll claim a table at the upstairs bar

And count the cowboy hats

And bachelorettes that don't know where they are

[Chorus]

And I don't say things that I don't mean

And you're the best thing I've ever seen

You can have my money if you spend your own

Well, I'm still running but I'm not alone

[Verse 2]

We all get lost out here

The deepest ditches line the righteous path

God said, "hold my beer"

And He made a man so He could watch and laugh

But everything's good these days

We'll ride to Robert's on a Friday night

And hear Don Kelley play

And I'll catch you dreamin' in the neon light

[Chorus]

'Cause I don't say things that I don't mean

And you're the best thing I've ever seen

You can have my closet and my herringbone

Well, I ain't lost yet, I'm headed home

[Verse 3]

Everything's green right now

Tennessee's looking after you

You get a year to come down

And I'll put an easel in the empty room

And you can dream all day

We'll ride to Robert's when we crave a steel

We'll find some peace that way

And give your heart a little time to heal

[Chorus]

And I don't say things that I don't mean

And you're the best thing I've ever seen

You can have my closet for your fancy shoes

Well, I ain't lost yet, so much to lose
