[Verse 1]
'Bout the time we got the tent up, the rain came pouring down
So we jumped inside to keep from getting wet
Bobby said we're almost in our teens now
Have you ever smoked a cigarette?
Now looking back
After a few thousand packs
Man, I could kill him
[Verse 2]
Me and Uncle Jack were fishing on a cold December night
He told me fifteen was old enough
And he handed me that bag of Purple Velvet
Said, "Here son, a little sip will [?] you up"
After two ex-wives
And a whole lot of wasted life
Man, I could kill him
[Bridge]
It's easier to blame someone
For the pain you've caused
And the wrongs you've done
You can run
But you can't hide from the truth
[Verse 3]
So I quit smoking and a-drinking almost a year ago
And already my life's taking a better turn
Swimming back across those muddy rivers
That are littered with the bridges I have burned
And I finally understand
That devil ain't my friend
And man, I could kill him
[Bridge]
It's easier to blame someone
For the pain you've caused
And the wrongs you've done
You can run
But you can't hide from the truth
[Outro]
'Bout the time you get your tent up
The rains come pouring down
'Bout the time we got the tent up, the rain came pouring down
So we jumped inside to keep from getting wet
Bobby said we're almost in our teens now
Have you ever smoked a cigarette?
Now looking back
After a few thousand packs
Man, I could kill him
[Verse 2]
Me and Uncle Jack were fishing on a cold December night
He told me fifteen was old enough
And he handed me that bag of Purple Velvet
Said, "Here son, a little sip will [?] you up"

And a whole lot of wasted life
Man, I could kill him
[Bridge]
It's easier to blame someone
For the pain you've caused
And the wrongs you've done
You can run
But you can't hide from the truth
[Verse 3]

And already my life's taking a better turn
Swimming back across those muddy rivers
That are littered with the bridges I have burned

[Bridge]
It's easier to blame someone
For the pain you've caused

[Outro]
'Bout the time you get your tent up
The rains come pouring down
