James McMurtry - Bad Enough lyrics

Where have been? I don’t want to know

Probably some place I wouldn’t want to go

Who were you with? What did you see?

Whatcha talk about? Whatcha say about me?

Where have you been? I won’t let it drop

What were you thinking? When you gonna stop?

What were you thinking? When you gonna learn?

When you gonna give anything in return?

What were you thinking? It better be good

When you gonna act like you know you should?

When you gonna act like you know you should?

When you gonna do like you said you would?

Well it goes all night like a broken record

You know it wouldn’t take all that muchTo bring me down from all that pressureI guess you just know when it’s bad enough

Well it goes all night like a broken record

We come right back to the same old stuff

We don’t back down and it don’t get betterI guess you just now when it’s bad enough

The car’s on the curb, the key’s in the lock

Houses all dark up and down the block

Swaying on the sidewalk, sneaking through the door

Waitin’ for the sound of your shoes on the floor

Waiting for the gallows, waiting for the noose

Waiting for the sound of your combat boots

‘Cause the order’s come down to launch the attach

Scheduled to commence the minute I get back
