Dylan Marlowe - Hang It Up Lyrics

My buddies say, "Hey, buddy"
Been long enough, don't you think?
You're turning into somebody
We don't even know his name
They try to get me out
But they just don't know how

Her takin' off sure took a toll
On this ticker in my chest
I wish I could put her out
Just like a one last cigarette
Thought I'd be good by now
But I'm sure finding out that I can't

Hang it up
Like a dog collar 'round a rearview mirror in an ol' farm truck
Like a nine-point deer side a ten-pound bass on a cypress stump
Or granddaddy's gun
Oh, like all of them records on the wall, man, oh
Yeah, I should put her right there with 'em all
Say to hell with it and just put a nail in it
And hang it up

It say February 2nd, 2017
I never will forget it
The day that I wrecked everything
And let a good one go right on down the road

It was fireflies and fireworks
And 4th of July kisses
It was every night a midnight on the dot
Dance in the kitchen
It shouldn't be this hard
Lettin' go with this ol' heart

But I can't hang it up
Like a dog collar 'round a rearview mirror in an ol' farm truck
Like a nine-point deer side a ten-pound bass on a cypress stump
Or granddaddy's gun
Oh, like all of them records on the wall, man, oh
Yeah, I should put her right there with 'em all
Say to hell with it and just put a nail in it
And hang it up
Hang it up

Like a baseball glove my senior year
Like the good Lord does with the sun around here

Wish I could hang it up
Like a dog collar 'round a rearview mirror in an ol' farm truck
Like a nine-point deer side a ten-pound bass on a cypress stump
Why's it so damn tough?
Oh, like all of them records on the wall, man, oh
Wish I could put her right there with 'em all
Say to hell with it and just put a nail in it
And hang it up
Hang it up
Oh, hang it up
