ATL - Butch Walker[00:00:00]
Written by:Bradley Walker[00:00:01]
Born from hippies back in sixty nine[00:00:13]
I was bored by 1992[00:00:20]
I walked into a recruitment office a year before that[00:00:27]
They said son we've been waiting for you[00:00:34]
Discharged from the Gulf War the very same year[00:00:41]
I came home with a carton or two[00:00:48]
Of cigarettes and mix tapes and bullets from a gun[00:00:56]
That my dead best friend never did use[00:01:03]
Oh Atlanta please need me like I needed you[00:01:10]
Let your sweaty embrace open wide[00:01:17]
'Cause Atlanta I'm falling like most people do[00:01:24]
And I need all your ground to survive[00:01:32]
Wasted and downtrodden only in vain[00:01:50]
I cried myself blind at the sight[00:01:56]
Of the old shopping center where we used to ride[00:02:03]
Now condos as sterile as I[00:02:10]
So I bought me an old air stream for three thousand bucks[00:02:17]
From a drug dealer I used to owe[00:02:23]
And I thought to myself as I slept off a high[00:02:30]
The irony is starting to show[00:02:38]
Oh Atlanta please need me like I needed you[00:02:44]
Let your sweaty embrace open wide[00:02:51]
'Cause Atlanta I'm falling like some people do[00:02:59]
And I need all your ground to survive[00:03:06]
Drove out to Asheville 'cause that's where you were[00:03:24]
Where you married into money and pills[00:03:30]
And I wanted so bad to be good with you now[00:03:37]
The fact is that you never will[00:03:45]
'Cause some become lovers because of the sex[00:03:51]
And some you know they just become friends[00:03:58]
In our case I just became bad at it all[00:04:05]
I never got good at it again[00:04:11]
Oh Atlanta please need me like I needed you[00:04:19]
Let your sweaty embrace open wide[00:04:26]
'Cause Atlanta I'm suffocating like some people do[00:04:33]
And I need all your air to survive[00:04:41]
