Savannah (Here I Come)

by Tyler Key

/

lyrics

a fifth of gin
a tank of gas
one's for first place
and one's for last
i was so serious
but up to the task
savannah, here i come

bury the tires
shoot out the lights
store every moment
and lock em up tight
make your home
on the highway tonight
savannah, here i come
oh no.
cut off your hair
forget your old name
here is your new god
but he's still the same
he'll bring you joy
and laughter and pain
savannah, here i come

grind up the fire
and spit on the ash
leave all the merchandise
take all the cash
we're in the future
reliving the past
savannah, here i come.

forget about the ribbons you've tied around your neck
your love is not a present, it's not a blank check
it's the weight of expectations you've already met
savannah, here i come

remember the ides
remember the flowers
you won't know the day
and you won't know the hour
spanish moss dripping down
like old gospel power
savannah, here i come.
