Lyrics

DeAnn's denim dress has got a dandelion scent That drifts with her as she rounds the door I saw photograph if not from eight then ten years back Of a birthday cake with a lit-up twenty-four And I miss times I drank 'cause I'd never overthink And I never gave into this lore You ain't Jesus Christ 'cause you don't think twice Sunday when you pass a liquor store [Chorus] But time changes all, you'll see Did you become what your mama wanted you to be? And are you strong enough to stay away from family genes? 'Cause DeAnn's denim was a stubborn thing Well I said, DеAnn's denim was a stubborn thing [Verse 2] Well, I recall a lеtter that she sent to me on base When I was out playing patriot She said she was leaving the house, headed out And finally had the nerve for facing it The genes that her daddy left were workin' in vintage and Procter's daddy did 'em the same He said I could change my suit and tie, pray all night to Jesus Christ But he'd belt my ass if I changed my name [Chorus] 'Cause time changes all, you'll see Did she become what her daddy wanted her to be? Was she strong enough to stay away from family genes? 'Cause sometimes, denim is an ugly thing Well, sometimes, denim is an ugly thing [Outro] DeAnn's denim dress has got a dandelion scent That drifts with her as she rounds the door Cleaned out the closet, found some closure when I threw those old blue jeans on the floor I cleaned out the closet, found some closure when I threw those old blue jeans on the floor I cleaned out the closet, found some closure when I threw those old blue jeans on the floor
