lyrics

POLELINE
by Jerry Smith

The only thing I can see of you
Is the outline of your body in my best friend’s pool
You know that I think, I’ve been thinking of you
Too much to be healthy, too much to stay cool
Because, it’s August and I can hardly breathe
Because of the wet air and heavy degrees
I can tell by the way she walks out to the poleline

Where the girls who like to drink wear inappropriate skirts
And complain about mosquitoes
And I catch flashlights from the corner of my eye
I can tell it’s the one I invited
But she’s latched onto someone else
She’s someone else’s problem, someone else’s hell
But I can tell by the way she drinks we’re still going to happen
‘Cause it’s a long drunk walk home from the poleline

Now she’s latched onto my jean-jacket sleeve
And I found a dark path where no one will see
What we’re going to do on our way home from the poleline
On our long drunk walk home from the poleline
