Dear Sister Songtext
von Courtney Marie Andrews

My sister Mary Lee is drunk again

She′s bargin' in my room and bawlin′ on my bed

With eyes just like cups
She pours just enough for the two of us
'Til it's me and Mary Lee just cursin′ at our luck
Even though I don′t care all that much

The days keep gettin' shorter
It′s been ten months of winter
It's been a rough year on everyone I know

It′s just one thing after another
When you truly believe nothin' gets better
But I wish that you′d just let it all go

Mary Lee is in the front yard
She's takin' off with our used car
For once I′m not the one biddin′ goodbyes


Her steerin' wheel′s an ashtray
Her cassette deck plays my demo tapes
And she lends us all a cheap farewell
But I know that she means well

You finally got away
A cure will come in another place
At least that's what you told me

But your head goes along with you
And with everythin′ that you do
And if you hate it now, you'll hate it again

Mary Lee, don′t you see that it's all in your head?
All in your head

Head

Come back home

Come back home

Come back home

Come back home

Come back home

Come back home
