Sam Barber Jersey Giant Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And I remember all those summers
Playing 'til my fingers bled
You'd sing songs and I'd sing with you
We'd get drunk and go to bed
Looking back at all them memories
Lord, I hate to sleep alone
If you ever get the notion
That you need me, let me know

[Chorus]
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Shoulda seen the warnings signs
But I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a littlе out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersеy Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
[Verse 2]
And I remember all those winters
Drinking Woodford 'til we drowned
We'd get wind about a party
Bundle up and go to town
Never worried 'bout the police
Never worried much at all
I miss those nights of reckless glory I'd come back if you'd just call

[Chorus]
Well, it's just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Shoulda seen the warnings signs
But I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

[Chorus]
It's just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Shoulda seen the warnings signs
But I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
