Nothing Good

I came to in a parking lot and I didn’t know my name

In a southwest georgia service stop that I almost

Made my grave

I can’t recall particulars though I swear I’m not to

Blame

But the gun that’s lying next to me keeps smokin’ all

The same

Cut me out, I’m spreading like a cancer baby

Peel me back, for all the world to see

Spit me up, I’m accustomed to rejection, darlin'

Nothing good ever could come from me

They say that nobler men prevail, and lord knows

That I'm not one

I put off all my growing up for the sake of having

Fun

I'll do right by you someday, but I’m damned if I

Know how

‘Cause I follow where my compass leads, but it's

Always pointing south

Cut me out, I’m spreading like a cancer baby

Peel me back, for all the world to see

Spit me up, I’m accustomed to rejection, darlin'

Nothing good ever could come from me

Throw me out, I’m wasted in so many ways

Toss me back, into that deep dark sea

Burn me up, just give me to the fire, doll

Nothing good ever could come from me

Cut me out, I’m spreading like a cancer baby

Peel me back, for all the world to see

Spit me up, I’m accustomed to rejection

Nothing good ever could come from me
