"Wild And Rotten" lyrics

Mt. Joy & Nathaniel Rateliff Lyrics

"Wild And Rotten"

I won't lie, you make a fool out of me
Got me rolling around on roller skates, tryna protect my needs
You thank God, I thank family
Oh, the real good liar about the way things seem (Yes)

I go out riding in my car
Everywhere you are, my star, star
Star, star, star, you lead me in the dark
Underneath the arch
To the old town bar where your car is parked
And this like

There goes my sweet angel
Standing in her raincoat, singing
"Maybe all this change is just freedom"
Oh, no

(Yesh) I got love that you can't control
Like when the laughter takes hold
And it comes flying out your nose
And in this world where you're just not sure
Our love is gonna teach me how to rise above

I go out riding in my car
Everywhere you are, my star, star
Star, star, star, you lead me in the dark
Underneath the arch
To the old town bar where your car is parked

There goes my sweet angel
Standing in her raincoat, singing
"Maybe all this change is just freedom"
Oh, no

Then she grabbed my hand, shook it like a friend
And shouted into the wind
She said

Let me go wild and rotten
Let me go wild and rotten
All of your big plans, forgotten
Let me go wild and rotten

Yeah, then she grabbed my hand, and shook it like a friend
And left me there forgotten, mmm

Now, of course, I wanna go where the light is
But I was sure as hell you'd be the one to help me find it
