Drive-By Truckers - Assholes lyrics

rate me

You buy me dinner when I'm in town

Talk about records that you know

Lay the friendship card upon me and out the door

Somebody said we hurt your feelings with our little dirty jokes

Then you accused us of stealing back our soul

Then you say that we're the assholes

Cause we bitched about the hassles

While you're sleeping in your castles

And we're still riding down the road

I hear you're all offended by the letters that I wrote

It's just a shame it hadn't ended long ago

Then you sicked your lawyers on me

Told them to go for the throat

And you just sat back and watched them have a go

Then you say that we're the assholes&

But I never would deny we have our share of the blame to absorb

But when you say that you're the reason for the things that we've achieved

I want to kick down your door

You like to say that we're the assholes

As if we somehow done you wrong

We just do what we have to, to carry on

I'm sure you'll find another asshole

To replace us for a song

You'll keep your office and expense account and we'll keep traveling along

When you say that we're all assholes

Guess it'd be useless to deny

I'm just saying you're the reason why
