"Jersey Giant" lyrics

And I remember all those summers
Playing 'til my fingers bled
You'd sing songs, and I'd sing with you
We'd get drunk and go to bed

Looking back at all them memories
Lord, I'd hate to sleep alone
If you ever get the notion
That you need me, let me know

It's just two hours, get there, babe
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
Need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Should've seen the warning signs
But I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

I remember all those winters
Drinking Woodford 'til we drowned
We'd get wind about a party
Bundle up and go to town

Never worried 'bout the police
Never worried much at all
Miss those nights of reckless glory
I'd come back if you'd just call

It's just two hours, get there, babe
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
Need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Should've seen the warning signs
But I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

It's just two hours, get there, babe
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
Need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Should've seen the warning signs
Lord, I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
