| Notes: | Ryan Adams interview: "It’s about a baseball park beside the train tracks in Raleigh, off Hillsborough Street, where I’d go sit with a friend of mine late nights. I used to go there after hours, after the bars closed — sometimes a little before — and bring a cold six-pack of beer and sit there with this girl. We’d be talking, and I would pretend there was a game going on. I’d heckle the game, yelling "You fucking suck! You gotta swing!" It’s kind of a sad story, actually, ‘cause it didn’t work out too good with this friend." |

| Lyrics: | Why should i hate you? After all, it's been so long Since I've lived in town. Let it go for now. Have a drink at your favorite bar till dark. Stumble into empty baseball park. Strike one and strike two... I guess we're both out. Stumble past the record store End up at the movies. Try and think of something else. Nothing's comin' to me. Stumble past the record store End up at the movies. Try and think of something else. Nothing's comin' to me. You do this to me. You do this and I oblige. And I fight it. Why should I miss you? After all, it's been so long Since I felt your kiss. Did it come to this? Stumble past the record store End up at the movies. Try and think of something else. Nothing's comin' to me. Stumble past the record store And end up at the movies. Try and think of something else. Nothing's comin' to me. I let you do this to me. I must be crazy. I must be crazy. I must be crazy. I must be..... I must be. I must be. |
