Lori McKenna - I Know You lyrics
[Lori McKenna - I Know You lyrics]
You never woke up beside a stranger
But, you never spent the night alone
In your jacket is a flask of Southern Comfort
In your pocket you got a comb i know you
I know you
You've been pushed right to the limit
Lived on a lonesome road
Chopped up an old pine dresser
To heat the house once in the cold
I know you yeah, I know you
Well, I know where you go when
You want to be alone
I know just how hard you work and
How much money you bring home
You love the sound of church bells but
You hate sitting in the pew baby, I know you
DH lawrence wouldn’t be your favourite poet
If you thought poetry was cool
You have too much pride to be a thief
And just enough gut to be a fool
Baby, I know you, I know you
Well, I know the sound of your thunder
And I know the smell of your rain
I know every time you walk out that door
You might stumble back in it again
Yeah, I know you
Yes I do, baby blue, I know you
Well, I know that you feel bad for
Every bad thing that you do
You got a scar on your right cheek and
The fear of God embedded in you
Your mother had a wooden spoon
And a shamrock tattoo baby, I know you
Well, no other woman's gonna feel beneath
The skin that you are in
No other woman's gonna read your mind
Or be sorry for your sins i know you
I know you
Well, I know what you look
Like just before you cry
I know how to make you sick and
I know how to make you die
The only thing I could never do
Is let you say goodbye say goodbye
‘Cause, I know you i know you
You never woke up beside a stranger
But, you never spent the night alone
In your jacket is a flask of Southern Comfort
In your pocket you got a comb
But, you never spent the night alone
In your jacket is a flask of Southern Comfort
In your pocket you got a comb i know you
I know you
You've been pushed right to the limit
Lived on a lonesome road
Chopped up an old pine dresser
To heat the house once in the cold
I know you yeah, I know you
Well, I know where you go when
You want to be alone
I know just how hard you work and
How much money you bring home
You love the sound of church bells but
You hate sitting in the pew baby, I know you
DH lawrence wouldn’t be your favourite poet
If you thought poetry was cool
You have too much pride to be a thief
And just enough gut to be a fool
Baby, I know you, I know you
Well, I know the sound of your thunder
And I know the smell of your rain
I know every time you walk out that door
You might stumble back in it again
Yeah, I know you
Yes I do, baby blue, I know you
Well, I know that you feel bad for
Every bad thing that you do
You got a scar on your right cheek and
The fear of God embedded in you

And a shamrock tattoo baby, I know you
Well, no other woman's gonna feel beneath
