Lyrics

I won 21 dollars on a lottery ticket

Won $21 on a lottery ticket

Spent it all on coffee and a nicotine addiction

Spent it on coffee and nicotine addiction

That's my idea of a Wednesday afternoon

Describes her unconventional Wednesday afternoon

I'm not sure how I got this far

Reflecting on uncertainty about her current situation

Riding on pure luck and this old guitar

Relying on luck and her guitar for progress

Coasting down the highway broke and out of tune

Traveling on the highway, broke, and out of tune

Well you came along, you helped me sing this song

Expresses the positive impact of someone's arrival

You helped me figure out I wasn't living all wrong

Realizing she wasn't living entirely wrong

The mess I'm in makes a little more sense with you

With the person, the mess in her life makes more sense


So if I win ten thousand dollars then you get half

Promising to share winnings if she wins $10,000

If tomorrows the day I disappear out of state you'll be the first thing that I pack

If she leaves suddenly, the person is a priority

If we ever get caught doing something we should not

Commitment to support in difficult situations

I'll be the first one to have your back

Being loyal even in challenging circumstances

And if I win ten thousand dollars you get half

Reiterating the commitment to share winnings


I still remember when we met in June

Recalling the beginning of their friendship in June

You said if I jumped the fence then you would too

Shared willingness to take risks for each other

From that night on it was always me and you

Establishing a strong bond since the first meeting

Spent the summer taking shots in black bikini tops

Memories of a carefree summer with the person

We stole a couple golf carts to outrun the cops

Engaging in mischief together, escaping from the police

I'm full of bad ideas and so are you

Admitting to having bad ideas, but enjoying them

They say once in your life you find a friend like mine

Describing the rarity of finding a friend like hers

You take the snakes and the fakes and you leave them behind

Choosing genuine friends and leaving others behind

You don't need a whole crew you need one like mine

Emphasizing the importance of quality over quantity in friendships


So if I win ten thousand dollars then you get half

Reiterating the promise to share winnings

If tomorrows the day I disappear out of state you'll be the first thing that I pack

Prioritizing the person in case of sudden departure

If we ever get caught doing something we should not

Commitment to support each other in questionable situations

I'll be the first one to have your back

Assurance of loyalty even when facing difficulties

And if I win ten thousand dollars you get half

Repeating the commitment to share potential winnings


Half to buy a trailer, park it right by mine

Planning to use winnings to buy a trailer

We'll sit outside and we'll drink our wine

Imagining a shared, relaxed future with wine

Looking for some men that we can marry one day

Looking for potential life partners together

But I ain't ever met nobody who could hang

Expressing difficulty in finding a suitable match


So if I win ten thousand dollars then you get half

Reiterating the commitment to share winnings

If tomorrows the day I disappear out of state you'll be the first thing that I pack

Ensuring the person is a priority if she leaves abruptly

If we ever get caught doing something we should not

Commitment to support in questionable situations

I'll be the first one to have your back

Promise of being the first to support in challenging times

And if I win ten thousand dollars you get half

Reiterating the commitment to share potential winnings
