Drinking Bourbon on a Sunday Night

by George Fetner (and the Strays)

/

lyrics

She was sweet around the edges but she didn’t care
about the way that she looked or how she did her hair.

We were in college and we talked about God

but the time we spent together was too damn flawed.

She told me not worry as we ran away.
Straight from the book – she always knew what to say.
It was getting dark so I had to pretend.
She said “let’s get drunk and we can be friends”


Hurt me.


I won’t slow

.
But I can’t play
.
I won’t go.

I can’t stay.


Drinking bourbon on a Sunday night

I was crying and bitching about life being fair.
I had a lotta issues but she didn’t care.

We were in college and I treated her right
.
And we talked and we talked well into the night.
I told her that I loved her as I fell to the ground
but her silence was louder than the loudest sound.

It was time to be easy.
It was time to be strong.

I ended up loving and I ended up wrong.

Hurt me.

I won’t slow.
But I can’t play.
I won’t go.

I can’t stay.

I won’t go.
I can’t stay.

I won’t go.

I can’t stay.

about

George Fetner (and the Strays) Columbia, South Carolina

His guises have included stormy Britfolk songwriter (Some Things We’ll Change) and avant-garde composer (Beneath the Ice). But Fetner seems most natural fronting The Strays, a rangy and loose-limbed rock ‘n’ roll ensemble that’s built for a good time: Swirling Hammond swells, greasy Tom Petty-isms, bubbly pep — these are the calling cards of a songwriter built to bridge crowds. edited, Free Times ... more
