Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I went to a cobbler to fix a hole in my shoe
He took one look at my face and said
"I can fix that hole in you"
I beg your pardon, I'm not lookin' for a cure
I've seen enough of my friends in the depths of the god-sick blues
[Verse 2]
You know I am a liar (Liar)
You know I am a liar (Liar)
Nobody helps a liar (Liar)
[Verse 3]
'Cause I've been down to Dixie
And dropped acid on my tongue
Tripped upon the land till enough was enough
I was a little bit lighter and adventure on my sleeve
I was a little drunk and lookin' for company
[Verse 4]
So I found myself a sweetheart
With the softest of hands
We were unlucky in love
But I'd do it all again
[Verse 5]
We built ourselves a fire (Fire)
We built ourselves a fire (Fire)
You know I am a liar (Liar)
You know I am a liar (Liar)
And you don't know what I've done
[Verse 6]
And by the rolling river is exactly where I was
There was no snake oil cure for unlucky in love
To be lonely is a habit, like smokin' or takin' drugs
And I've quit them both, but man, was it rough
[Verse 7]
And now I am tired (Tired)
It just made me tired (Tired)
Let's build us ourselves a fire (Fire)
Let's build us ourselves a fire (Fire)
