Merry Go Round
Kacey Musgraves - Merry Go Round
.
If you aint got two kids by 21,
Youre probably gonna die alone
At least thats what tradition told you.
.
And it dont matter if you dont believe,
Come Sunday morning you best be there
In the front row, like youre sposed to.
.
Same hurt in every heart.
Same trailer, different park.
.
Mamas hooked on Mary Kay
Brothers hooked on Mary Jane
And Daddies hooked on Mary two doors down.
.
Mary Mary quite contrary,
We get bored so we get married
And just like dust we settle in this town.
On this broken merry go round and round and round we go,
Where it stops nobody knows...
And it aint slowin down, this merry go round...
.
We think the first times good enough,
So we hold on to high school love,
Say we wont end up like our parents .
.
Tiny little boxes in a row,
Aint want you want its what you know,
Just happy in the shoes youre wearin.
.
Same checks were always cashin ,
To buy a little more distraction.
.
Cause Mamas hooked on Mary Kay
Brothers hooked on Mary Jane
Daddies hooked on Mary two doors down.
.
Mary Mary quite contrary,
We get bored so we get married
And just like dust we settle in this town.
On this broken merry go round and round and round we go,
Where we stop nobody knows...
And it aint slowin down, this merry go round...
.
Mary Mary quitecontrary,
Were so bored until were buried.
And just like dust we settle in this town.
On this broken merry go round...
Merry go round...
.
Jack and Jill went up the hill,
Jack burned out on booze and pills,
And Mary had a little lamb,
Mary just dont give a damn no more.
