Notes: |
Ryan Adams to Uncut Magazine: "That song is about Tennessee really sucking. Ha!! It sucks in the summer, worse even than New York. It's not only hot but really humid. Even the beer doesn't help you. I wrote it as a gag. It's from the second of The Pink Heart sessions on the record, with Bucky playing some really fucked-up Paul Simon guitar shit that I don't know what is. There's another song on the same subject called "Saturday Night" that almost made the record." |

Lyrics: |
There you go | |||||
| Waving your arms like a girl | ||||||
| Secondary clothes | ||||||
| Don't worry, nobody knows | ||||||
| Somebody order my round | ||||||
| 'Cause I'm getting high | ||||||
| Steal a twelve pack from 12th & Porter with Billy | ||||||
| 4:30 a.m. at night | ||||||
| 'Cause Tennessee sucks, in the summer | ||||||
| What do you got that can put us under? | ||||||
| There goes Johnny B. | ||||||
| Weird and tall | ||||||
| He says "The band, man they've got good songs, | ||||||
| they just don't draw" | ||||||
| Somebody order my round | ||||||
| Chances are I won't pay | ||||||
| Hey Brad, let's go down to the Bound'ry | ||||||
| Get something blue to put us out of our way | ||||||
| 'Cause Tennessee sucks, in the summer | ||||||
| What do you got that can put us under? | ||||||
