Reba
from There Is a Bomb in Gilead (2012)
Reba, you know that I'm alone
If I go and pick up the phone,
And ask you to scare me off to sleep.
Reba, try as I might,
Though my promises are milky white,
I'll leave them out some night, and they won't keep.
Reba, you know I'm going to worry.
I live on the line between the false and true.
Reba, you know I'm going to worry.
It's all I can do. It's all I can do.
Reba, please don't tell him I called.
I ain't trying to mess with y'all.
I guess at best I'm a liar, at worst I'm dumb.
Reba, don't think your boy done changed.
I've been accused of a lot of things,
But having any sense never has been one.
Reba, you know I'm going to worry.
I live on the line between the false and true.
Reba, you know I'm going to worry.
It's all I can do. It's all I can do.
I ain't saying I'm trying to light an old flame anew,
It's that I'm afraid all my tinder has rotted through
Reba, you know I'm going to worry.
I live on the line between the false and true.
Reba, you know I'm going to worry.
It's all I can do. It's all I can do.
