Jordaan Mason Don T Stay Just To Stay For Patrick Lyrics
Don't Stay Just To Stay (For Patrick) by Jordaan Mason
[Verse 1]
All the buildings are boarded up
And I lost my job last week
There's no one here on these back roads
They're out buying antiques
Some people left up christmas lights
On a house by town hall
And everyone you meet
Has wrote their name on some local bathroom stall
[Chorus]
So pack your bags and leave here
Don't stay just to stay with me
[Verse 2]
Gambling drunks stumble out
From the restless neon signs
And they go out with their women
To the local wine and dine
The girls wear too much make-up
Down at the river with the boys
Flipping through the radio
Blasting out that american noise
[Chorus]
So pack your bags and leave here
Don't stay just to stay with me (2x)
[Verse 3]
And me, I'm in a parking lot
Drinking from a paper cup
I'm just trying to keep warm
I'm just trying to wake up
[Chorus]
So don't stay just to stay with me
Don't stay just to stay with me
All the buildings are boarded up
And I lost my job last week
There's no one here on these back roads
They're out buying antiques
Some people left up christmas lights
On a house by town hall
And everyone you meet
Has wrote their name on some local bathroom stall
[Chorus]
So pack your bags and leave here
Don't stay just to stay with me
[Verse 2]
Gambling drunks stumble out
From the restless neon signs
And they go out with their women
To the local wine and dine
The girls wear too much make-up
Down at the river with the boys
Flipping through the radio
Blasting out that american noise
[Chorus]
So pack your bags and leave here
Don't stay just to stay with me (2x)
[Verse 3]
And me, I'm in a parking lot
Drinking from a paper cup
I'm just trying to keep warm
I'm just trying to wake up
[Chorus]
So don't stay just to stay with me
Don't stay just to stay with me
