  • Cashed out in the front room
    Ashes stain his lips
    Lucifer on the sofa
    Staring at you
    You've been counting weekends
    Never getting dressed
    Speaking in third person
    Trying to forget

    What am I gonna do
    With your last cigarettes
    All your old records
    All your old cassettes?

    You hit the corner market
    Feel the winter sky
    Looking through the windows
    As you're passing by
    Mmm-mmm, and I'm chasing every thought
    And I'm walking over water
    Thinking 'bout what I lost

    What am I gonna do with
    With your last cigarettes
    All your old letters
    Everybody knows
    That I'm stuck with all your pictures
    A box of cigarettes
    All your old records
    All your old cassettes

    Now you're cruising up Lavaca
    Against the traffic lights
    Gonna walk all evening, yeah
    There's no one out tonight

    Now you're thinking about Dale Watson
    Thinking about turquoise
    All along West Avenue
    While those black birds make their noise

    Tell me truth later
    And just lie tonight
    For now, I need peace
    And nothing feels right
    And I'm stuck with all your pictures
    A box of cigarettes
    All your old records
    Yes, and all your old cassettes

    Ah-ah
    Ah-ah
    Ah-ah
    Ah-ah
    Ah-mmm
    Ah-ah
    Ah, ah-ah Writer/s: Alex Fischel, John Daniel
