lyrics

she keeps her daddy’s ashes in an old coffee can
down by the foot of her bed
he was a boozer and a dreamer with a mean exit plan
that she cannot get out of her head
in a little brown house in East Tennessee
she waits for the sun to go down
there are a million constellations and ways to be free
and she’s seen enough of this town.

she wants to sleep for a thousand years
she wants to go where she ain’t gonna cry no tears
she wants to find god’s grace and believe him this time
and leave that little brown house
leave that little brown house
leave that little brown house behind.

well this world has had its way of breaking her down
down to where she’s had her share
of cocaine and cigarettes, she’s 98 pounds
of proof that life isn’t fair.
and if you ask her what she’s thinking
she’ll tell you a lie
oh she don’t hardly know her own mind
but that little bit of wisdom she picked up on the sly
keeps telling her the truth ain’t worth a dime.

she wants to sleep for a thousand years
she wants to go where she ain’t gonna cry no tears
she wants to find god’s grace and believe him this time
and leave that little brown house
leave that little brown house
leave that little brown house behind.
