Elle King - Jersey Giant



I've heard this song a few times lately, and I really like it. Elle King has a really good voice, and the song has a nostalgic feel to it. Tyler Childers wrote it. Enjoy. 

Jersey Giant 
I remember all them summersPlaying 'til my fingers bledYou'd sing the songs and I'd sing with youWe'd get drunk and go to bed
Looking back at all them memoriesLord, I hate to sleep aloneBut if you ever get the notionThat you need me, let me know
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babeI can make it back about an hour or soHold you close against my skinI need a little warmth on a night so coldSinging songs you used to singThe one about the lady in the long black veilShould have seen the warnings signsBut Lord, I love to hear you wailHigh and lonesome, hard and strongEven if it was a little out of tuneHotter than socks on a jersey giantLord, I thought you hung the moon
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
I remember all them wintersDrinking Woodford 'til we drownedWe'd get wind about a partyBundle up and go to town
Never worry 'bout the policeNever worried much at allI miss those nights of reckless gloryAnd I'd come back if you'd just call
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babeI can make it back about an hour or soHold you close against my skinI need a little warmth on a night so coldSinging songs you used to singThe one about the lady in the long black veilShould have seen the warnings signsBut Lord, I love to hear you wailHigh and lonesome, hard and strongEven if it was a little out of tuneHotter than socks on a jersey giantLord, I thought you hung the moon
I left town when we were over'Cause it didn't feel the sameEvery backroad had a memoryAnd every memory yelled your name
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babeI can make it back about an hour or soHold you close against my skinI need a little warmth on a night so coldSinging songs you used to singThe one about the lady in the long black veilShould have seen the warnings signsBut Lord, I love to hear you wailHigh and lonesome, hard and strongEven if it was a little out of tuneHotter than socks on a jersey giantLord, I thought you hung the moon
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
