Daffodils Lyrics

Well, the make-up's worth the break-up
The way that Linda lays it on me
Like some ponies on a carousel, round and round and right
All them fighting words you don't mean
Hell, I went too far and the scars are deep as time
This fifty mile ride from work's about to bleed the pockets dry

Cause you can't get far on paper mill pay
Twenty bones and a Chevrolet, won't guarantee it, but you gotta try
Don't you know it's do or die?
She's been sittin' on the porch for too long, playin' Does he want me or Want me not
Darling, quit pickin' petals off of daffodils
Girl, I love you and I always will

When she told me she was pregnant
Well, my first thought was denial
Should've taken more precaution
But hadn't seen her in a while
You can't mix the old and water
When it comes down to commitment
Ain't a good life for a daughter
Ain't a life without you in it

And you can't get far on a paper mill pay
Twenty bones and a Chevrolet, won't guarantee it, but you gotta try
Don't you know it's do or die, she's been sittin' on the porch for too long
Playin' do you want me or want me not
Darling, quit pickin' petals off of daffodils
Girl, I love you and I always will
And always will
Yeah, always will

And you can't get far on paper mill pay
Ain't concerned about it anyway
All I wanna do is make you right
As I'm pullin' in your gravel drive
