Letra de Square Your Hat

She was my pure heart, my pure soul*
Everything to me and a whole lot more
Until the night that she went out walking out that door
“I met someone,” she said. “I never meant to but I did.”
The news hit me like a bullet in my chest
Yeah I got mad, things got smashed
I found a bottle and I got trashed
My father dropped in and he poured himself a glass
I confessed to him my dark thoughts
I swear somebody’s gonna get shot”
He said that’s just the whiskey talk
He said, “Square your hat son
What’s done is done
You can’t do anything now
You’re far too young to be livin’ on the run
So why don’t you just settle down?
There’s no gettin’ over a woman like that
So square your hat son, what’s done is done.”
A week and a half I’m still throwin’ them back
I can’t forget the sound of her laugh
I swear I’m gonna kill that man
Ya I’m crazy drunk with a loaded gun
And you ain’t so hard to find in this town
I look in the mirror before I head down
And said “Square your hat son
What’s done is done
You can’t do anything now
You’re far too young to be livin’ on the run
So why don’t you just settle down?
There’s no gettin’ over a woman like that
So square your hat son, what’s done is done
What’s done is done. What’s done is done.”
She’s gone. She’s gone
And I can’t shake this feeling in my bones
She’s gone. And I cannot leave hell enough alone
Anything but that
Square your hat son
What’s done is done
You can’t do anything now
You’re far too young to be livin’ on the run
So why don’t you just settle down?
There’s no gettin’ over a woman like that
So square your hat son, what’s done is done
Square your hat son
Square your hat son
There’s no getting over a woman like that
