lyrics

The ball’s about to drop, baby
We can still get a couple kicks in
Or we could call off our dogs for a minute
Kennel our adrenaline

‘Cause there’s another new year coming, baby
We both dressed up for this
Feel like I should say something
I got nothing
Took a stab at a kiss and get

The sharp end of your heart as I twist in a tear
Got your name on my tongue at the tip of the spear
Oh we have fun, oh we have fun
Can’t we have just one happy new year

But I remember how you moved against me
In that parking lot dark
You used to move so present-tensely
To the screams coming off the amusement park

Then you took your golden heart and you locked it
Now you like to keep love at your throat
I keep my love in my pocket like it’s only a joke
But it’s only a joke like the both of our

Sharpened hearts
And our steel tipped tears
Your name on my tongue at the tip of the spear
Oh we have fun, oh we have fun
Can’t we have just one happy new year

There’s still time for a couple shots of kindness yet
Ain't nowhere near last call
Guess I’ll try and lay it all on the line for once
For Auld Lang Syne and all

If I thought that I could leave all of you behind
I wouldn’t mind dying
I wouldn’t mind
But I got this feeling I’d take some of you with me
So come over here kiss me
Come on, come over here
Let’s have a happy new year

Oh we have fun, oh we have fun
Can’t we have just one
Oh just one
Can’t we have just one happy new year

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.
