lyrics

Well I hardly ever smoke
And I’m small, so small
When I light up it feels good
For a while

But even one cigarette it’s too much
They’re so strong, so strong
I feel sick
I feel close to the ground

Well I woke up with the sun
It was bright, so bright
Full of hope I went out
In the day

But the sun it’s gone down
Now it’s dark all around
I feel sick
I feel close to the ground

And my clothes they all fit
I look good, so good
Tie a scarf ‘round my neck
And I’m warm

But the wind’s picking up
As the moon’s coming up
And my socks and my shoes
Full of holes

So I think I’ll pack it in
Go back home, back home
If I’m smart or if I’m dumb
I’m not sure

Though I’m giving up my pride
At least now I’ll feel no scorn
Though I’m sick
I feel close to the ground

Rube New York, New York

Rube was formed in New York in 2016. We recorded our first album in Georgia in 2018. Now we live in New York, Georgia, and Los Angeles. We play poppy country rock music; it's as dumb as it sounds but it's pretty smart sometimes.
