Blue Ink Lyrics

Blue Ink lyrics

I'm falling off the barstool mama in this old ghost town saloon

Where sunlight moves like sadness across the room

Oh my sweet mama if you could only see me

Now drunk as a skunk falling out of this rundown lacy gown 



This blue ink this blue ink this blue ink

Across the page i write to you 



I'm sitting in these thorny cowboy boots

And scabby knees wondering why i left you mama

Just to do as i please no hat has a brim

Wide enough to block out the blazing sun

I met the devil on the road but i had no legs to run 



This blue ink this blue ink this blue ink

Across the page i write to you 



Silver ran off two towns ago i been walking alone

I been walking slow my eyes are dry from the desert wind

I know i ain't coming home to you again



I'll take off into the deep blue sky

When i'm dead and gone and the buzzards fly this blue ink across the page

I write to you mama if you love me you're the only one who do
