"85" lyrics

"85"

I'm just of real sad folk
And '85 was our best year
And she says it gets much worse before
It gets any better

So I take it with a grain of salt
For the other means
I wonder why it doesn't keep her up at night (Up at night)
Like it does me

We talk the way you do
And I have a sweet or two for
My only plus you say
They're getting bigger everyday

So I take it with a grain of salt
For the other means
I wonder why it doesn't keep him up at night (Up at night)
Like it does me

I'll be in your car
I locked the keys in your car
I'll be in your car
For now

You wanna fool around? I ask
I get a sour reply
From the other wheel that always
Rises to the occasion

So I take it with a grain of salt
For the other means
I wonder why it doesn't keep you up at night (Up at night)

I'll be in your car
I locked the keys in your car
I'll be in your car
For now

I've been a mess for some time
Now I get what I deserve
For someone who leaves behind a life
I can do better

So I take it with a grain of salt
For the other means
I wonder why it doesn't keep you up at night
(Up at night, up at night, up at night)
Like it does me
