lyrics

Hop along there into tourist traps
Who digs out who?
Just roll it back
If it starts to look uncouth
Hop along there into tourists traps
Who digs out who?
Between the idle hands drowning in vermouth

It's because I'm caught, because I'm lost
'Cause I found out that I forgot
Where I was for a moment without you
When I'm back, baby I'm back
And I'm not going back off the track
I'm gonna remember to always pass in the inside lane

I wish things turned out the way I planned them
Was it Sam, was it Mary, or was it Shannon?
When the foxhounds and ladies have their moments
You forget for the moment they're just opponents

I never, ever, ever could reach that far
These shoulders never, ever did see those stars
With you I never really could get it right
So what's the point in thinking I could tonight?
These teeth they just could never sink deep enough
To make me pay attention or make me put up with you

Hop along there into tourist traps
Who digs out who?
Between the idle hands drowning in vermouth
I'm caught because I'm lost
'Cause I found out that I forgot
Where I was for a moment without you
Here's the catch, baby here's the catch
You gotta make through one last batch
You never got the chance
To decide between blood and blues
