- Cover Me Up Lyrics

A heart on the run 
Keeps a hand on the gun 
You can’t trust anyone



I was so sure 
What I needed was more 
Tried to shoot out the sun



In days when we raged 
We flew off the page 
Such damage was done



But I made it through 
To somebody new 
I was meant for someone



So girl leave your boots by the bed we ain't leavin' this room 
Til someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom 
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood 
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good



Put your faith to the test 
When I tore off your dress 
In Richmond all night



I sobered up 
I swore off that stuff 
Forever this time



And the old lovers see 
I'd thought it'd be me 
Who helped him get home



But home was a dream 
One I'd never seen 
Til you came along



So girl hang your dress up to dry we ain't leavin' this room 
Til Percy Priest breaks open wide and the river runs through 
Carries this house on the stones like a piece of drift wood 
Cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good



So girl leave your boots by the bed we ain't leavin' this room 
Til someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom 
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood 
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good 

Cover me up 
And know you're enough 
To use me for good
