The Forsaken Few

Excuse me, baby, if I don't smile for you
But I been drinkin' all night with the forsaken few
We took it apart till there was nothing left
Now I'm swimming in the bones of my wretchedness

I packed my devils in my suitcase
I packed my dogs and demons too
Goin' on a little holiday
With the forsaken few

Excuse me, baby, if I don't dance with you
But I been doin' time with the forsaken few
Without walls, I built a prison; without bars, I built a cage
Doin' seven long years of tears, heartache and rage

I packed my devils in my suitcase
I packed my dogs and demons too
Takin' them on a little holiday
With the forsaken few

Excuse me, baby, if I look blue
But I been cryin' in my beer with the forsaken few
Don't try and tempt me with that red, red dress
I know it ain't the wind that got your hair a mess

I packed my devils in my suitcase
I packed my dogs and demons too
Goin' on a little holiday
With the forsaken few

I packed my devils in my suitcase
Along with all my dreams of you
Takin' them on a little holiday
With the forsaken few
