Pay No Mind

Pay no mind to what you been thinking
Pay no mind to what I been drinking
Sure seems like we’ve seen this movie before
Let’s start the scene with the happy ever after
Skip the tears, cut straight to the laughter
Pay no mind to the demons at your door

Pay no mind I know we can do it
We can get it done if we put our minds to it
Sure seems like we’ve walked down this old road before
Avenue, lane and the boulevard
We can get it together if we try real hard
Pay no mind to the carnage at your door

Sure ain’t nothing you can do about it
Sure ain’t nothing you can live without
You know I love you, indeed I do

Might as well get it all on the table
Skip the lies cut straight to the fables
I always love them stories you tell to me
Might as well get it all in the open
I been thinking real hard and I been hoping (that)
You’ll agree to be my same old used to be

Pay no mind to what you been eating
I can barely swallow but my heart is still beating
Sure seems like we’ve sat down together for a meal or two
Hot sauce crawfish rice and beans
Scoot a little closer that’s what I mean
When I say I hope you love me like I love you

Sure ain’t nothing you can do about it
Sure ain’t nothing you can live without
You know I love you, indeed I do

Got dog tired of the whole damn movie
Looks like our goose is cooked again Suzie
Pay no mind to the repo man at the door
We gotta little bit of lovin’ and a sweet potato pie
My heart is full but I got to try
To tell you that you mean the whole damn world to me

Pay no mind to what you been thinking
Pay no mind to what I been drinking
Sure seems like we’ve seen this movie before
Let’s start the scene with the happy ever after
Skip the tears, cut straight to the laughter
Pay no mind to the demons at your door
Pay no mind to the demons at your door
Pay no mind to the demons at your door
