lyrics

Never split your smokes with me
Never walk your way home on this street
Never loan, never plead, never knock, never bleed
Better get yourself (straight, Jack)
(straightjacket) ‘round them bony lips and fold your napkin
Better aim with the breeze
Better nod when they leave

You should have seen your face
Black smoke rise out of Atlanta
Last smoke tossed on the freeway

And that Georgia wildfire,
Georgia white hot iron burn
Every great broken heart began to light up and spark
Every neon sign flickered at once
Every barkeep sighed and swept the dust
Better look before it’s gone and we’re thrown out at dawn

You should have seen your face
Black smoke rise out of Atlanta
Last smoke tossed on the freeway
