about

a song about leaving. this was recorded in the winter of 2020 in Tontitown Arkansas.

lyrics

hard times are coming Lord the good times don't last
hard times in the future and hard times in the past
I just wanna be free

Went down to the courthouse to speak to the judge
said I wish my baby'd leave me but he just won't budge
won't you set me free

cuz how're you supposed to love someone you can't even trust?
I wanna start my old pickup and leave him in the dust
and then I'd be free

of course it ain't that easy in fact it's real hard
leaving it all on the table when you ain't got any cards
and nothing ever comes free

he's always accusing me, I ain't done any wrong
all I did was love him and sing these songs
and in these songs I'm free

spent a decade doing whatever he asked
turns out that kindly smile's just another mask

I don't even blame him, we both were so young
hearts couldn't cash the checks written by our tongues
I'm gonna set us free

yeah I'm finally leaving gonna try my luck
the only bed that I'll be needing is the one on my truck
and then I'll be free
