BUTCH WALKER LYRICS - The Weight Of Her

"The Weight Of Her"



Oh!



Here come the captain

She's a firecracker, skinny jeans

Two lips of honey, yeah

She leaves a trail of gasoline

She drinks more whiskey

Than her daddy, she can even sing

And all the clappers say

You're living in her world



The word around the street

She likes the smell of cocaine

It makes her crazy when she

Mix it up with champagne

You'll never make it if you

Don't keep her locked in a cage

You will be wishing now

For any other girl



Don't let the weight of her world

Bring you down

Don't let her walk in the room

And turn you inside out

Don't let the touch of her hand

Take you down

No, not now

No, not ever again

Ooh



6:45 as you wake up

She's just gone to bed

Clear out the phone

From a hundred texts you haven't read

She only wants you

When it's later and she's off her head

Pay close attention

You're just living in her world



And all the Swedish girls

They hang out at the hotel

It's sex for green cards

I think they know you very well

It paints a picture of a movie

Ending dark as hell

You will be wishing now

For any other girl



Don't let the weight of her world

Bring you down

Don't let her walk in the room

And turn you inside out

Don't let the touch of her hand

Take you down

No, not now

No, not ever again

Ooh



And what am I supposed to talk about with you anyway?

I graduated the year you were born.

And I don't wanna have to drive around and listen to your burned CDs

through your shitty car speakers of every band you think you discovered;

it's just gonna make me feel insecure.



Don't let the weight of her world

Bring you down

Don't let her walk in the room

And turn you inside out

Don't let the touch of her hand

Take you down

No, not now

No, not ever, hey!



Don't let the weight of her world

Bring you down

Don't let her walk in the room

And turn you inside out

Don't let the touch of her hand

Take you down

No, not now

No, not ever again

Ooh

Yeah ooh
