With his head out the sunroof
|
And his heart in the right place
|
Plan B was fool proof.
|
He drove off to her place,
|
And yelled out his feelings
|
Among other stuff.
|
|
It was too much tequila
|
Or not quite enough
|
It was too much tequila
|
Or not quite enough.
|
|
It's a semi-true story
|
Believe it or not
|
I made up a few things
|
And there's some I forgot.
|
But the life and the tellin'
|
Are both real to me
|
And they all run together and turn out to be
|
A semi-true story.
|
|
Well, the picture is fuzzy,
|
And the details are sordid.
|
It was on the same day
|
God's Own Drunk was recorded.
|
A walkin' tall sheriff
|
And a big Cadillac
|
And me and my golf shoes
|
On the hood makin' tracks.
|
This daring young singer
|
Was under attack.
|
|
It's a semi-true story
|
Believe it or not
|
I made up a few things
|
And there's some I forgot.
|
But the life and the tellin'
|
Are both real to me
|
And they all run together and turn out to be
|
A semi-true story.
|
|
Well, the things that I've lived
|
And I've dreamed
|
And I've seen
|
And I've heard
|
You take the good with the bad
|
And be glad to have every word.
|
|
It's a semi-true story
|
Believe it or not
|
I made up a few things
|
And there's some I forgot.
|
But the life and the tellin'
|
Are both real to me
|
And they run like the rain
|
All the way to the sea.
|
Semi-true stories.
