Eric Church - Mistress Named Music lyrics
[Eric Church - Mistress Named Music lyrics]
I still remember Miss Bessie singing
Black, wrinkled fingers on ivory keys
Just five years old
My church shoes a dangling
Yeah, she's long gone and I'm
Still chasing this song
With a guitar full of freedom and
A head full of lines
That nightlife full of demons has been
A hell of a ride i got a crazy heart
But I was born to lose it
Married to a dream with
A mistress named music
No hope and squarely solitary
Enough whiskey and Coke, boys
To get me in a bind amps juiced
The whole damn block could hear me
Even that cop car rolling past
By the time they hit the front door
I was out the back
With a guitar full of freedom and
A head full of lines
That nightlife full of demons has been
A hell of a ride i got a crazy heart
And I was born to lose it
Married to a dream with
A mistress named music
White calloused fingers on bronze and nylon
These same old boots are still tapping time
Not quite the buzz I used to tie on
But 'til I'm gone, I'll be chasing this song
With a guitar full of freedom and
A head full of lines
That nightlife full of demons has been
A hell of a ride i got a crazy heart
And I was born to lose it
Married to a dream with
A mistress named music
Yeah, I'm married to a dream
With a mistress named music
Black, wrinkled fingers on ivory keys
Just five years old
My church shoes a dangling
Yeah, she's long gone and I'm
Still chasing this song
With a guitar full of freedom and
A head full of lines
That nightlife full of demons has been
A hell of a ride i got a crazy heart
But I was born to lose it
Married to a dream with
A mistress named music
No hope and squarely solitary
Enough whiskey and Coke, boys
To get me in a bind amps juiced
The whole damn block could hear me
Even that cop car rolling past
By the time they hit the front door
I was out the back
With a guitar full of freedom and
A head full of lines
That nightlife full of demons has been
A hell of a ride i got a crazy heart
And I was born to lose it
Married to a dream with
A mistress named music
White calloused fingers on bronze and nylon
These same old boots are still tapping time
Not quite the buzz I used to tie on
But 'til I'm gone, I'll be chasing this song
With a guitar full of freedom and
A head full of lines
That nightlife full of demons has been
A hell of a ride i got a crazy heart
And I was born to lose it
Married to a dream with
A mistress named music
Yeah, I'm married to a dream
With a mistress named music
