Electric Bill - Jason Boland & the Stragglers Lyrics

Electric Bill

Oh the finest thing about you is how you try to understand

What it takes to be half freak and half good hearted man

When the phone is always ringing with bankers on the line

Don’t forget I’m yours and how you’re mine

If they take away everything it won’t take us apart
We’ll roll some kill in the electric bill and smoke it in the dark


Then we’ll grow a little garden and recline in yonder shade

Wait for fall and feast on all the fruits the plants have made

When the winter wind is bitter cold, you feel you’re froze for good

Don’t forget I cut two Cords of wood

If they take away everything it won’t take us apart

We’ll roll some kill in the electric bill and smoke it in the dark

((Instrumental))

((Final Bridge))
When they need to take a closer look at what it means to love

They can watch with a drone from miles above

If they take away everything it won’t take us apart

We’ll roll some kill in the electric bill and smoke it in the dark

Yes we’ll roll some kill in the electric bill and smoke it in the dark
