Hard Wired - Shakey Graves

Well water was wine back on blue mountain time

Where I watched your loving expire

While I lay close to you

As the laces on the shoe

And that’s when I knew

We were hard-wired

Well you bumbled like bees

And I’m boiled like the seas

While you led where no one would follow

So I head in the mud

Of my Catholic blood

And let that minute hand face stars tomorrow

Well you are as you came

Mostly blessin' cocaine

Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was

Sick with mercy and love

Well, I’m sorry enough

I was hard-wired

So sit by the still

Oh, drink up your fill

Yeah, tell all of them people your problem

Yeah, well those friends were so true

When you were twenty-two

But now you have nothing in common

But they are as they came

Mostly blessin' cocaine

Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was

Sick with mercy and love

Well the truth always was

We were hard-wired

So go brace for good times

Oh, do what feels right

And send me the bill when you tire

'Cause I am as I came

And I’ll still be the same

I got nothing to play

Mhm, I was hard-wired

Yeah, 'cause I am as I was

And I stay here because

The truth always was

We were hard-wired
