Cover Me Up - Jason Isbell Song Lyrics


A heart on the run
Keeps a hand on the gun
You can't trust anyoneI was so sure
What I needed was more
Tried to shoot out the sunIn days when we raged
We flew off the page
Such damage was doneBut I made it through
To somebody new
I was meant for someoneSo girl leave your boots by the bed we ain't leavin' this room
Til someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
Put your faith to the test
When I tore off your dress
In Richmond all nightI sobered up
I swore off that stuff
Forever this timeAnd the old lovers see
I'd thought it'd be me
Who helped him get homeBut home was a dream
One I'd never seen
Til you came alongSo girl hang your dress up to dry we ain't leavin' this room
Til Percy Priest breaks open wide and the river runs through
Carries this house on the stones like a piece of drift wood
Cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
So girl leave your boots by the bed we ain't leavin' this room
Til someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
And know you're enough
To use me for good
