Red Eye Orchestra - Roll the Bones (feat. Jake Handley)

You're a good-for-nothin' lover
And a good-for-nothin' friend
Well, I'll sit and cast my bones
But I'm already dead

I hit the bar last night about forty miles from here
Out past the city lights where the dust begins to clear
I sat at the sticky bar and I start to drink my fill
I'm three or four shots in and I still got time to kill

Moon lights are buzzin', and it feels like I'm alone
But then a girl comes up and she asks to bum a smoke

"Ain't seen your face before, oh, you must not be from here"
I shook my head and asked if she might just want a beer
That beer turned into five as these nights often do
Hey, hon, you're looking fine, and I wanna get off with you

You're a good-for-nothin' lover
And a good-for-nothin' friend
Well, I'll sit and cast my bones
But I'm already dead

Next mornin', I woke up, handcuffed to the bed
Got bruises on my arms, and a pain inside my head
She got my wallet, all my money, and my car
She's probably three states out, so I'll head back to the bar

You're a good-for-nothin' lover
And a good-for-nothin' friend
Well, I'll sit and cast my bones
But I'm already dead
