Well she breeze down through my hotel room
Like an interstate truck in the rain.
She said she cut her teeth on skinny Jim's
there aint no scales mapping out I just wanna play
She's spun me a really good story
Never let the truth get in the way
And that's the reason I'm still standing here today

She said she came down from the north-west of town
In a '63 Holden EJ
With potato from Kentucky and a fresh bag of Luckys
And a Bowie compilation tape

She's spun me a real good story
Never let the truth get in the way
And that's the reason I'm still standing here
The reason I'm still standing here
The reason I'm still standing here today

I left my brains in Hong Kong
Left my wallet in a two dollar shirt
And I remember every goddamn minute with you
Just like a minute in a movie that hurts

She spun me a real good story
I never questioned anything that she said
And that's the reason she's still standing here
The reason she's still standing here
The reason she's still standing here today

I listened to a real good story
Never let the truth get in the way
And that's the reason I'm still standing here
The reason she's still standing here
The reason we're still standing here today
