Shooter Jennings - Don't Wait Up (I'm Playing Possum) lyrics

I’m a rattlesnake and I make no bones And I’m in too deep like “No Show Jones” I like a little sugar in my coffee Somebody’s givin’ you sugar and baby it’s not me That’s okay, I’ve got a plan of my own Yeah I got a couple numbers I don’t keep in my phone Gonna call ‘em up and see who’s around Gonna spend a couple nights in the dark downtown She gonna love me right and you love me wrong Tonight lemme put on some more cheatin’ songs Put on some Whitley or a little bit of Gosdin Baby don’t wait up ’cause I’m playin’ possum Yeah Yeah Been spendin’ my night in the honky dives Well I know a few drunk who’re still alive They call me up to tell me where you been That you been hangin’ out with the likes of him That’s all right, baby, I been makin’ I been makin’ moves while you been drinkin’ I’m gonna get what I need from a red light bed Don’t bother callin’ I turned off my cell It takes a little moonshine to make a black rose blossom Baby don’t wait up I’m-a playin’ possum Playin’ possum She gonna love me right, you love me wrong So maybe baby put on some more cheatin’ songs Put on a little Keith Whitley or a little Vern Gosdin Baby don’t wait up I’m-a playin’ possum I’m-a playin’ possum I’m-a playin’ possum I’m-a playin’ possum I’m-a playin’ possum I’m-a playin’ possum I’m-a playin’ possum I’m-a playin’ possum
