Monroe Suede Lyrics


Momma played piano in a Pentecostal church
Starin' them snakes in the eye
Daddy died drunk, left us all in a lurch
Hell I did what I did to get by
I did what I did to get by
A third grade education won't bring you no luck
When you're looking for a way to get paid
Turned 14 and stole a pickup truck
Couldn't make it on minimum wage
Couldn't make it on minimum wage
Well I almost got caught in Tulsa town
Had me one foot in the grave
Ah they're gonna die trying to track me down
But they'll never catch Monroe Suede
No they'll never catch Monroe Suede
Well you can't stay long when you're living on the run
And the high sheriff's lookin' for you

Never shot nobody with a loaded gun
But I found me a lover or two
Well I almost got caught in Tulsa town
Had me one foot in the grave
Ah they're gonna die trying to track me down
But they'll never catch Monroe Suede
No they'll never catch Monroe Suede
Momma still plays piano in the same ol' church
Helpin' them sinners get saved
Daddy died drunk, left us all in a lurch
And they call me Monroe Suede
Well I almost got caught in Tulsa town
Had me one foot in the grave
Ah they're gonna die trying to track me down
But they'll never catch Monroe Suede
No they'll never catch Monroe Suede

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Monroe was born on September 10, 1986 in Knoxville, Tennessee. Growing up, her parents played songs by the Eagles and Lynyrd Skynyrd, so her country rock roots started early, and she was already taking piano lesson before she turned seven. At age 11, she won a talent contest in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee (home of Dolly Parton's resort "Dollywood"), singing "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart." She subsequently found steady work performing in a theater in Pigeon Forge. A couple year later, her father gave Monroe her first guitar, and she began writing her own songs.
