Lyrics

Takin Care

Tina put the kids to bed and tucked ‘em in real tight
Dusted off her old Frye boots and tore out through the night
She had a fifth of whiskey and some Backusburg homegrown
She was on a tear, she didn’t care
If it was right or wrong

Jody worked the graveyard shift down at the papermill
He makes a decent living but tonight he’s had his fill
So he takes his black camaro, throws a six pack on the seat
Put it in the wind down highway 10 and let the bid dogs eat

Sometimes walking away, Is what you gotta do
There’s a price to pay, for taking care of you
Taking care of you

There’s a spot down by the Tennessee where Jody always goes
It’s usually nice and quite but tonight he’s not alone
There’s a girl down by the water, with flaming auburn hair
It’s too dark to see, man it couldn’t be, is that Tina standing there

Sometimes walking away, Is what you gotta do
There’s a price to pay
For taking care of you
For taking care of you
For taking care of you
