Charles Wesley Godwin
Sad Country Standards
[Verse 1]
It's late out and raining but I pull off 'cause I can't see a thing
I was singing too far on the road to get back home tonight

[Pre-Chorus]
So I lie in the backseat with a brown paper bag
Listening to the rain on my roof
While an angel's at home with emerald eyes like jewels
Sleeping sound in our room

[Chorus]
To happy reflection
By sad country standards
With the rain on the roof
And a full bottle two arming me
I'm not quite like you
I'll be home soon
By sad country standards

[Verse 2]
I'm worn from the work and the road that I travel along
With a pocket of money from the folks who heard all my songs

[Pre-Chorus]
So I lie in the backseat with a brown paper bag
Listening to the rain on my roof
While an angel's at home with emerald eyes like jewels
Sleeping sound in our room
[Chorus]
To happy reflection
By sad country standards
With the rain on the roof
And a full bottle two arming me
I'm not quite like you
I'll be home soon
By sad country standards
I'll be home soon
By sad country standards
