"Football" lyrics

"Football"

Donnie dug a hole
His face as wearin' thin like an old shoe sole
Momma turned to dust
She was on the train tracks waitin' for the blood to rush

And you told me I was stayin' strong
When all I've done is play along
And they put it on, they put it on me
Don't put it on me

Maybe you're not the person who caught the football
Maybe you're not the person who caught the football

Mary on the pole
Her faith was wearin' thin like an old shoe sole
Mary holdin' tough
She would fuck the preacher if he only paid enough

And his ring is off and his button down
And he tore it off and she tore around
Put a bullet in and pull it on three
Don't pull it on me

Maybe you're not the person who caught the football
Maybe you're not the person who caught the football
Maybe you're not the person who caught the football
Maybe you're not the person who caught the football
