Each half of the canvas represents each song. Find links to listen to both below. Lyrics by Zach Bryan.
I don’t wanna bet, but my father wrote a check
That I bet his ass could never cash
He’s betting on the eight ball landing in the side wall
Cold-blooded killer if you ask
But every night he needs me to land himself
a red-three corner pocket at 12 a.m.
Only 12 years old, but I got a hold
of a pool stick I was gifted from him
My father is a betting man
But I got myself a steady hand
He’s sitting in the corner with a six pack of Corona
Betting that his son will win again
Go get another six pack, bet I make a comeback
I know that this table’s got a lean
Won’t you take me fishing, and I want to try out
For the seventh grade football team
He’ll probably be nothing, but this town’s old drunkard
And die on a smoke-stained stool
Right now he’s got a bargain that he’s taken too far
on his boys game of nine-ball pool
My father was a betting man
But I got myself a steady hand
He’s sitting in the corner with a six pack of Corona
Betting that his son will again
My father was a betting man
My father was a betting man
But I got myself a steady hand
He’s sitting in the corner with a six pack of Corona
Betting that his son will again
I don’t wanna bet, but my daddy wrote a check
That I bet his ass could never cash
He’s betting on the eight-ball landing in the side wall
Cold blooded killer if you ask
She’s got a need to leave you wantin’ more
She loves hard love and metaphors
Leave your shoes off at the door
‘Cause dinner’s waitin’ on you
Grand things don’t impress her much
She’s keen to smaller acts
She likes honey in her coffee
And boys that use their backs
Friday afternoon at the Mercury Lounge
She loves a Prince song and a live sound
Never needs much and sure knows how to dance
All the money in the world couldn’t make her smile
She prefers things that are worth while
Like small towns, that old style, and smaller acts
There ain’t no love a man can find
You’d feel her in a room if you was blind
There ain’t a grand thing a man can do
She’ll only love you for you
She’s satisfied in the scorchin’ summer
Like the trees and stars she’s layin under
They’re fine bein’ right where they are
Give her a buzz and a beat-down boy
She hates bullshit and loves the noise
of a coastal town the early parts of fall
There ain’t no love a boy can find
You’ll feel her in a room if you was blind
There ain’t a thing a man can do
She’ll only love you for you
There aint no love a man can find
You’ll feel her in a room if you was blind
There ain’t a thing a man can do
She’ll only love you for you
