Lyrics
Said it was his big break
The biggest baby, be happy for me
I'll be rollin' in deep
Like we always dreamed
I'll be back couple days a week
Leave the light burnin' on for me
Yeah
Loaded up the trunk of his car
With his favorite boots and dad's guitar
Said, "Stop that baby
I always have it with me
See the thing is baby
My mama was the open road"
Yeah, rotten smells pretty good when it's all you know
Rotten smells pretty good when you're standing knee deep in trouble in the pouring rain
I tell myself this one little lie
Every time I get high
I can't keep coming back for more
Funny what he left behind
Dirty clothes and lie after lie
But it's worse what he took
Took your hope
Proposed with a promise of a band of gold
Now colors look wrong
What's blue again
Can't feel my tongue
Get out of bed
So what if the story he told was full of holes
So what
Yeah, rotten smells pretty good when it's all you know
Rotten smells pretty good when you're standing knee deep in trouble in the pouring rain
I tell myself this one little lie
Every time I get high
I can't keep coming back for more
I can't keep coming back for more
I can't keep coming back
