"Steve Earle"

Well I heard Steve Earle had lots of wives
about as many as cats have lives
met him on his records, and we're good friends
He writes a song for every one,
they fall in love and before it's done,
he writes and even better one when it ends
Well I don't have to take your name
and you won't have to take the blame

Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me
I promise I won't take a dime, when it comes my time to leave
The other's wanted your whole heart,
but I just want your sleeve
Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me

Well I heard he loves them all the same,
as much as Ireland loves the rain
Steve it rains at my house everyday
He met 'em all in every port
because falling in love's a pilgrim sport
and as long as I can be the pirate, I'm okay
You moved to the city, baby you had to go
but I love apples, and I could learn to love the snow

Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me
I promise I won't take a dime, when it comes my time to leave
The other's wanted your whole heart,
but I just want your sleeve
Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me

Come on

I could walk around in your favorite shoes
come on, just one line, whatta you got to lose?
and I don't bruise

Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me
I promise I won't take a dime, when it comes my time to leave
The other's wanted your whole heart,
but I just want your sleeve, and the shirt that goes with it
coz it smells like you and you know i like to sleep in that
and a vacation house, at the beach
and a really small wedding, only 'bout three hundred people
Did I mention that I've got kids? you're gonna love 'em. They're gonna need to go to college.
Do you like reggae? I love reggae.
On tuesday nights i like to go to trivia,
so that's your night to go out with the boys and then you can...
is this thing on?

Steve Earle, Steve Earle, please write a song for me
I do
