Mistress Named Music Lyrics - Eric Church

1 I still remember Miss Bessie singing

2 Black, wrinkled fingers on ivory keys

3 Just five years old, my church shoes a-dangling

4 Yeah, she's long gone and I'm still chasing this song

5 With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines

6 That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride

7 I got a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it

8 Married to a dream with a mistress named music

9 No hope and squarely solitary

10 Enough whiskey and Coke, boys, to get me in a bind

11 Amps juiced, the whole damn block could hear me

12 Even that cop car rolling past

13 By the time they hit the front door

14 I was out the back

15 With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines

16 That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride

17 I got a crazy heart, and I was born to lose it

18 Married to a dream with a mistress named music

19 White calloused fingers on bronze and nylon

20 These same old boots are still tapping time

21 Not quite the buzz I used to tie on

22 But 'til I'm gone, I'll be chasing this song

23 With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines

24 That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride

25 I got a crazy heart, and I was born to lose it

26 Married to a dream with a mistress named music

27 Yeah, I'm married to a dream with a mistress named music
