Mistaken Identity Blues

lyrics

Well you're such a classy lady
Studied art history, studied in Spain
With oh so many pretty people, you sold such pretty little lies
You move with the hips and you lost your Kentucky accent
but it was no accident

Oh but wait, don't that feel like faking?
Oh wait, don't it sound just like a joke we made?

I remember not so long ago when you and I would drink and walk the railroad tracks
But I guess I straightened up too, I got a job driving nails and a lover who never fails to love me back.
Got a house and a car and a dog in the yard
Got a kid on the way and a five year anniversary, tomorrow.
We're driving up to Chicago

Oh but wait, don't that feel like faking?
Oh wait, don't it sound just like a joke we made?

Well I wake and I go to work, and i kiss my girl and lie to her and I lie to myself
and it takes all I got, it takes a lot of coffee to get me out of this house
This is what I do now, this is who I am,
I outta be a thankful man, a thankful man

Oh but wait, don't seal the deal.
Oh stop the car, this feels too real.
Don't it feel like faking?
Don't it seem like a case of mistaken identity blues?

Well I wake and I go to work, and i kiss my girl and lie to her and I lie to myself
and it takes all I got, it takes a lot of coffee to get me out of this house
This is what I do now, this is who I am,
I outta be a thankful man, a thankful man


Oh but wait, don't seal the deal.
Oh stop the car, this feels too real.
Don't it feel like faking?
Don't it seem like a case of mistaken identity blues?
