Common Rotation - Burgandy Lyrics
Well Ann she bought me a bottle of wine, it was a sultry 93 burgandyShe never minded to dine, on meWe stare across the sad cafes like were waiting on an accident.When what we think to say makes less senseAnd Im waiting on the drinks to bring me consent.Cause lately this is just the way it has been, the way it shall beTwo tables down an old wise man shoots a grin,You can tell hes happy, happy for meHang down your head just like Tom Dooley,Poor boy, you know you never once fooled me.You put your trust in the thought that grace was on your sideIts such a beautiful day to die.Well I guess it was thoughtful, after all it had just passed my birthday.Bring us another round, one for me and the ladyThough she aint my baby.No more dessert coffee, I wont put up another drink.Madam please show us the check but dont leave us here to think.Cause nothing was to move me, at least nothing that was said.But what was most delicately touching was that she recalledThat I preferred it red.Hang down your head just like Tom Dooley,Poor boy, you know you never once fooled me.You put your trust in the thought that grace was on your sideIts such a beautiful day to die.So we hit the nearest exit, I saddled up the carShe leans through my window says I dont like you driving:Oh come on baby you know that its not that far.I drive home to the latest pretty face shes all curled up on the couchThe weary whisper How was it? It was fine.But shell never know what the truth is all about.Lying next to the pretty ones, sometimes its the only place to goYou fumble around for the old kitchen corkscrew and you break that seal,Cause its all you know.Hang down your head just like Tom Dooley,Poor boy, you know you never once fooled me.You put your trust in the thought that grace was on your sideIts such a beautiful day to die.Poor boy, its too late to run and hide.
