Living Room Floor
Sammy Rae Lyrics

Woke up nearly six ′o clock
Sammy Rae wakes up early at around six o'clock in the morning.

It was our last day in Vermont
It is the last day they are spending in Vermont.

One of us was still missing
Someone from the group is not around yet.

Staying at Tommy's place
Sammy Rae and her group are staying at Tommy's place.

Doing nothing but playing for no pay
They are playing music without getting paid for it.

And anybody who wanted to listen
Their music is open for anyone who wants to listen to it.

Tommy had a buddy had turned 21
Tommy's friend recently turned 21 years old.

At midnight just a couple hours before
The friend turned 21 a few hours earlier, at midnight.

And I looked to my left, seen him wake up laughing
Sammy Rae saw the friend wake up and laugh beside her.

On a blanket, on some bullshit
The friend was lying down on a blanket.

All alone on the living room floor
The friend was alone on the living room floor.

And I keep a portrait in my pocket
Sammy Rae keeps a portrait of herself in her pocket.

Of myself the year I got stung
The portrait is of Sammy Rae when she was stung by something.

By that silly man, woah
She was stung by a man she thinks is silly.

You could see the fire in my eyes
In the portrait, Sammy Rae's eyes show a lot of fire or anger.

When he fired off to no surprise
She expected the man to do something and he did it anyway.

He didn′t come to give a damn
The man didn't care about how Sammy Rae felt.

And the bottle of merlot fell over
A bottle of merlot fell over, probably because of the man's actions.

When he got up to go
The man got up and left.

And finally slammed the door
He slammed the door behind him as he left.

Wait, what have we got left?
Sammy Rae wonders what they have left after the man's departure.

Seen it come up easy
They have seen things come up easily before.

Blood and baking soda
Sammy Rae is scrubbing blood and baking soda off her rug.

Scrubbing on my rug on the living room floor
Sammy Rae is scrubbing her rug on the living room floor.

And I am in my own lane
Sammy Rae is focused on her own life and not others'.

I will not let myself down
She will not disappoint herself.

I am in my own place
She is living her life the way she wants to.

I am my own house
She is her own home and does not depend on anyone else.

And sing it, I am in my own place
Sammy Rae sings that she is in control of her life.

Yes, indeed I am
She is certain and confident in her statement.

And when my old man come to visit
Sammy Rae's father is coming over to visit.

He said, "Is it ever tough to look back?
Her father asks if it is difficult for her to reminisce old times.

Does it get too loud?"
He asks if the noise or memories overwhelm Sammy Rae.

Woah, ah
An exclamation of surprise.

"Do you ever wish
Her father asks if she ever regrets not doing something.

You could have done them things you never done?
He asks if she would like to do things she never had the chance to do before.

Are you sentimental mama, are you proud?"
He asks if Sammy Rae's feelings towards her past are sentimental or if she is proud of it.

And you didn't have to order out for me
Sammy Rae did not need to order anything for her father.

I know it's something that you can′t afford
This suggests that Sammy Rae is short on money.

Have you got any left?"
He asks if there is any of the food left.

Tell him babe, I made this with my own hands
Sammy Rae tells her father that she made the food herself.

Ain′t it something, sitting cross-legged
She comments on the comfort of sitting cross-legged on the floor.

'Cause we haven′t got a table yet, oh
They don't have a table yet.

Saving up, gonna get a few chairs, get a whole set
They plan to save up to buy some chairs and a table set.

And I got my bed and my closet and a living room floor
Sammy Rae has a bed, a closet, and a living room floor in her own place.

Woah, I got a living room floor
She is grateful for what she has and is happy with her living room floor.

And I got it deep down in my soul
She feels the happiness from her living room floor in her soul.
