Ezra Vancil - Settle Down Good

Settle down
Settle down
I'll put you in my heart
Point a way to Arkansas
And throw me like a dart
Bathe me up in lithium
God knows I need a friend
In a hot spring new dream
We'll start another band
Play it boys
Oh Remember when
Remember when
I was just a kid
Well I'm sorry that I put you through
The life I never lived
About drowned in DFW
When I was swimming with the Sharks
To a hot spring in Arkansas
On that river in the dark
I'm gonna settle down
Settle down
And do what I should
There's a girl that's gonna love me
Cause I did all I could
I chopped down the world around me
For the heart of the wood
And I'm gonna settle down
Settle down good
Well I drank myself to jail and back
Now I'm piss'n clean
Found God at the bottom of a cigarette pack
At the Monday morning meeting
So float me up to Arkansas
Like you used to do
Or maybe down to Galveston
Oh that wasn't you
(Who was that girl?)
(Was that you? Didn't think so)
Well you cried yourself to sleep each night
But I wish you understood
Though I did the devils work
He was working for the good
I'm gonna settle down
Settle down
Do what I should
There's a girl that's gonna love me
Cause I did all I could
I chopped down the world around me
For the heart of the wood
Now I'm gonna settle down
Settle down good
Settle down good
I'm gonna settle down
Well you poured me out like alcohol
Cause I just can't get enough
But there is a bottom of the bottle in every heart
And getting there was tough
I think I was drinking up the dust
I'm gonna settle down
Settle down
And do what I should
There's a girl that's gonna love me
Cause I did all I could
I chopped down the world around me
For the heart of the wood
Now I'm gonna settle down
Gonna settle down good
Settle down settle down and do what I should
There's a girl that's gonna love me cause I did all I could
I chopped down the world around me for the heart of the wood
Now I'm gonna settle down
Settle down
Settle down good
