4th of july

Ryan Adams

Margaret... ? and sells you shoes
shoes that you don t need but you wear them out
and, aw hell, everybody compliments you
she s a lying machine
she s a lying machine with legs
with legs and shoes that match them

somebody needs to take me home
cause she rings just like a bell
when she s alone
she s all alone and i m too high
but she rings just like a bell
then i am alone at last
for real
for once
margaret smiles
and it s just like the 4th of july

i like it when the words all get confused
get confused and shit
and it s just me
my mouth is moving and it s not saying shit
she s a sickness in the sea
she s a sickness in the sea
of diamond studded handbags
tights and girls accessories

i need enough to get me home
cause we ring just like a bell when i m alone
i need enough to get me high
she rings just like a bell
then i m alone at last
for real
for once
margaret smiles
and it s just like the 4th of july
