letra de proud souls (live) - jason boland & the stragglers

[intro]
this is the first song i ever had anybody else record for me

[verse 1]
well, i got drunk by myself last night
they say it’s no way to make things right
i just didn’t have anything better to do
the dog was asleep on the living room rug
and i watched a show about crime and drugs
punished a bottle of jäger until it was through

[verse 2]
i don’t care that i can’t sleep
h-ll, i’d just as soon stay up all week
i might get some things done while others dream
the heater broke and the room got cold
and my knees and ankles say i’m gettin’ older
the phone finally rang, but it wasn’t for me

[chorus]
if everyonе was together
i guess no onе would be alone
life’s a lot of trade-offs in the end
somewhere in the fields of heaven
the proud souls laugh and they love together
somewhere between passion and losin’ friends
(oh, make me cry)
[verse 3]
well, now sleep finally came, but i woke up alone
and my head was next to the telephone
i gave the sun a cussin’ as i drew the shades
well, one thing that seems always true
that’s when i’m hungover, the sky is blue
a rough night for me’ll make a h-ll of a day

[verse 4]
and i believe in ghosts and democracy
and that each man should leave us his legacy
be that man’s work great or be it small
but i don’t believe in everything
like the designated hitter or that diamond rings
will make love last forever for one and all

[chorus]
’cause if everyone should be together
then why are some many left alone?
life’s a lot of trade-offs in the end
and somewhere in the fields of heaven
the proud souls laugh and they love together
somewhere between passion and losin’ friends
yeah, somewhere between passion and losin’ friends
yeah, hey
