Liz Longley - Avery lyrics
[Liz Longley - Avery lyrics]
You got so damn high you left me in Wisconsin
And I was sound asleep as
You drove my car away
And about a hundred miles south
Of where we were going
I was stuck in a stale
Motel just cursing your name
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all
These miles of memories?
Avery, you said you'd run
But you never said you wouldn't take me
What about Alabama? What about Tennessee?
What a friend you turned out to be, Avery
Well, last I heard you sold by beat up Chevy
Oh, but you never spared a dime
To give me a call
Are you hitching rides on highways, railways
Every day? Trynna break free from the
Weight of yesterdays
Getting lost in drugs and alcohol
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all
These miles of memories?
Avery, you said you'd run
But you never said you wouldn't take me
What about Alabama? What about Tennessee?
What a friend you turned out to be, Avery
Are you howling at the moon in Montana?
Or burnt by the sun in Santa Fe?
Oh, wherever you go, you never go to stay
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all
These miles of memories?
Avery, you said you'd run
But you never said you wouldn't take me
Oh, forget about Alabama
To hell with Tennessee
What a friend you turned out to be
Don't you think it's time you came clean
Avery?
And I was sound asleep as
You drove my car away
And about a hundred miles south
Of where we were going
I was stuck in a stale
Motel just cursing your name
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all
These miles of memories?
Avery, you said you'd run
But you never said you wouldn't take me
What about Alabama? What about Tennessee?
What a friend you turned out to be, Avery
Well, last I heard you sold by beat up Chevy
Oh, but you never spared a dime
To give me a call
Are you hitching rides on highways, railways
Every day? Trynna break free from the
Weight of yesterdays
Getting lost in drugs and alcohol
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all
These miles of memories?
Avery, you said you'd run
But you never said you wouldn't take me
What about Alabama? What about Tennessee?
What a friend you turned out to be, Avery
Are you howling at the moon in Montana?
Or burnt by the sun in Santa Fe?
Oh, wherever you go, you never go to stay
Oh, Avery, have you gone mad after all
These miles of memories?
Avery, you said you'd run
But you never said you wouldn't take me
Oh, forget about Alabama
To hell with Tennessee
What a friend you turned out to be
Don't you think it's time you came clean
Avery?
