Zach Bryan Fifth Of May Lyrics
Mama’s grippin’ on her hip on the fifth of May
In a photo daddy took on a humid day
In a town that’s anyone’s guess
Way out in western Kentucky
She’s broken hearted as he’s ridin’ away
On a motorbike out to east L.
To find a white line
It’s such a fine line
Between broken and lucky
Gettin’ high’s easy
Gettin’ drunk’s fine
It’s the gettin’ by that’ll get us all down
So if you need me
Know that I’m bleeding
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
Some coastal town
And I can feel when your body ain’t in this bed
I can still hear you laughing last spring in my head
Now it’s April and I hate you and I’m heading home
The little notes that you left for me
In coat pockets and cabinetries
Are in a shoebox where we once talked
Back when I felt free
Gettin’ high’s easy
Gettin’ drunk’s fine
It’s the gettin’ by that’ll get us all down
So if you need me
Know that I’m bleeding
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
Some coastal town
Mama’s grippin’ on her hip on the fifth of May
In a photo daddy took on a humid day
In a town that’s anyone’s guess
Way out in western Kentucky

Gettin’ high’s easy
Gettin’ drunk’s fine
It’s the gettin’ by that’ll get us all down
So if you need me
Know that I’m bleeding
Somewhere alone in some coastal town
In some coastal town
