There's A Whole Mess Of Trouble At The Choctaw Hill
Your Sister Couldn't Make It, But I Bet You Will
Knockin' Back A Jelly Jar Of Watermelon Wine
I Ain't Never Seen A Place Where The Sun Can't...

Wash Off All Her Make-Up With A Garden Hose
Watch The Freckles Sparkles Down The Ridge of Your Nose
With Your Lemon Yellow Ribbons and Your Bleach Blonde Hair
Blending in the Sun, 'Til You're Barely There
Blending in the Sun, 'Til You're Barely There

We'll Be Off The Radar, Off The Map
Stretch Out In The Tall Green Grass
Only Green, Against The Blue
It's Only Me, Against You

And The Man That Said "Dreams Don't Last"
Never Slept In The Tall Green Grass
And The Man That Said "Coo-Coo-Cachoo"
Did Some Time In The Tall Green Grass With You

Warm Molasses Midnight On A Mississippi Star
I Got A Candy Apple Ass On The Hood Of My Car
You Never Could Have Told Me You've Have Gone This Far
I Can't Even Tell You Where The Fuck We Are

Must Be Off The Radar, Off The Map
Stretch Out In The Tall Green Grass
Only Green, Against The Blue
It's Only Me, Against You

And The Man That Said "Dreams Don't Last"
Never Slept In The Tall Green Grass
And The Man That Said "Coo-Coo-Cachoo"
Did Some Time In The Tall Green Grass With You

We'll Leave Your Reservations In The Cold Red Clay
'Cause We've Got The Tall Green Grass For The Whole Damn Day

We'll Be Off The Radar, Off The Map
Stretch Out In The Tall Green Grass
Only Green, Against The Blue
It's Only Me, Against You

And The Man That Said "Dreams Don't Last"
Never Slept In The Tall Green Grass
And The Man That Said "Goo Goo G'Joob"
Did Some Time In The Tall Green Grass
Did Some Time In The Tall Green Grass
Did Some Time In The Tall Green Grass
...With You

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
