[Verse 1]
Your lips taste like American Spirit
My hands look like it's been a long tour
Last night’s failure is 400 miles away
But tonight could be alright, if only you'd let me stay

[Chorus]
Baby it don't take that long
Two rights don’t always make a wrong
Darling, listen to me, life doesn't have to be
As tragic as it is in my songs

[Verse 2]
This romance is embarrassing it puts your integrity on the line
Kind of like a suicide note without the suicide
Ranging from the depths of what you choose to see
Who you choose to love and what you choose to be

[Chorus]
Baby it don't take that long
Two rights don't always make a wrong
Darling, listen to me, life doesn't have to be
As tragic as it is in my songs

[Verse 3]
Just like the sassafras that always seems to pass a little bit too soon
It always comes down to who you love and what you're put on earth to do
The mighty kings of England, the mighty kings of Spain
They've all kept there titles but they don't do a thing
Now leaving North Dakota you know I kissed the other side
I have traveled all this way just to look you in the eye

[Chorus]
Baby it don’t take that long
Two rights don’t always make a wrong
Darling, listen to me, life doesn't have to be
As tragic as it is in my songs
