And I was sitting in the basement
And you were dancing in the party upstate
You weren't bothered by the look on my face you said
And I had the motor and the moment to spare
So I said Annie I care, can I take you to the picture show
If I try my best to move slow
And I was standing in a dark room
With the blood coming out of my eyes
And the man with a thought like boy you better come inside
'Cause twenty's too young back home
But she's tired of sleeping alone
Yeah, I picked up the bags
And I called a cab
To the house with the busted door
We're in a dumb state for twenty-five days
But you didn't stay a minute more
Leaving Casanova scrathed all over
Bleeding on the bathroom floor
Saying it's a long way back to Oklahoma from New York
Yeah, hush a little already
Get up and fight it
If love's the only weapon you got
Then let 'em know that you'll die by it
And if she cries out
Baby I could die now
Waiting for the ride down
Wake me up when your facing the lively
He takes a minute and tells her opportunity
He says you know me
To backtrack and catch what he missed
Yeah, and it's a pretty bad burden to bear
But she's tough enough to not care
Yeah, a toast to the guy
Who's been tipping my eyes
Ripping out a guy that she knows
She says I've tried forgiveness
But forgiveness is one hell of a drug
But I'm goddamm depleted and I won't stop bleeding
I'm kicking up just the floor
And it's a long way back to Oklahoma from New York
Yeah, I picked up the bags
And I called a cab
To the house with the busted door
We're in a dumb state for twenty-five days
But you didn't stay a minute more
Leaving Casanova scratched all over
Bleeding on the bathroom floor
Saying it's a long way back to Oklahoma from New York
Yeah it's a long way back to Oklahoma from New York
Yeah it's a long way back to Oklahoma from New York
