Well, DeAnn's denim dress has got a dandelion scent

That dress with her as she rounds the door

It's all photographic, not from eighth and 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

Well, 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, DeAnn's denim was a stubborn thing

Well, I recall a letter that she sent me on base

When I was out playin' a patriot

She said she was leaving the house, headed out

And finally had the nerve for facin' it

The jeans 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

'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

Well, DeAnn's denim dress has got a dandelion scent

That dress 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
