lyrics

I spent the day sweating last night’s little mistakes
I took a shower, but the shower didn’t take
The highway keep-a rollin’ like a reel to reel
I’m tryin’ to keep from taping over every sweet ordeal

And O’ Charlene, I’m still just about
Be nice to see you if you still get out

Cause the birds are still singing and the sun still burns
Swing low diminishing returns
And I’m finally done with all my trying to get it right
I drink a flat Coca Cola in the cold sunlight

And O’ Charlene, I’m still just about
Be nice to see you if you still get out

‘Cause we go way down in our cups
Back up in the air
You and me always pick up where
We left off not missing a beat
When the memories dim grab a window seat

And O’ Charlene, I’m still just about
Been wondering how you’re living
Thought I’d give you a shout

As the sun resets
I’m wondering what comes next
Every hundred songs, I set out alone
Something comes along

O’ Charlene, I’m still just about
Just about believing without a doubt
And O’ Charlene, I’m still just about
Be nice to see you
I been feeling kinda see through
Be really nice to see you if you still get out

Throughout his decade-and-a-half-long career, Cory Branan has been too punk for country, too country for punk, too Memphis for Nashville, and probably a little too Cory Branan for anyone’s damn good.
