Matthew C. Bauder

Lyrics

Summer’s here and it’s a brand new month
Lord, I sure ain’t running’ dry
And I’m working’ on my second fifth
Before the fourth of July

I was feelin’ like
I might’ve lost the fight
My head was hangin’ down askew
Now I’m certain that I’m missin’ you
Like a nail up through my shoe
Like a nail up through my shoe

I’m kinda hungry but too tired to eat
That kitchen’s ten whole feet away
‘Sides I think I had an egg or two
And that was only yesterday

Day wanes into night
A gradual twilight blight
What’s the lie and what is true
Now I’m certain that I’m missin’ you
Like a nail up through my shoe
Like a nail up through my shoe

At least I’m outta sight
Far from that warming light
My heart’s so cold it caught the flu
Now I’m certain that I’m missin’ you
Like a nail up through my shoe
Like a nail up through my shoe

I’m lookin’ forward to when autumn comes
The winter won’t be far behind
