Lyrics
Gumball Wedding Band jsj
A gumball wedding band, From a shaky hand
That?s the best that I could do
A schoolhouse photograph, A nine year old is laughing
Captured innocence in blue
It?s all I could give to you
It?s all I could give to you
A little farther down the road
I'm just pissin? in the wind
I wear my pain just like a rose
It covers up my sin ?On the run again...How much can I spend?Kick me in the shin?
I?ll never love again
It?s all I could give to you
It?s all I could give to you
A glass against the wall, you take another fall
Here?s a quarter, make the call
It?s all over now, I made it anyhow
I?m just fine after it all
It?s all I could give to you
It?s all I could give to you
A little farther down the road
I?m still pissin? in the wind
You wear your pain just like a robe
It covers up your sin?You lost your only friend? Took your wheelchair pin?
Kicked you in the shin?I just had to grin?You?ll never walk again? High on heroin?
Needle in your skin?Your boyfriend?s in the pen?It must?ve been the gin?You?re gettin? over men?
Court date set for ten?You?re not gonna win?Your lawyer?s my best friend?
You got no cash to spend?I got none to lend?
Well I guess that?s my sin
It?s all I could give to you
It?s all I could give to you
A gumball wedding band, From a shaky hand...
