My first love was a carpenter
He built me a house out of bottles and smoke
The day I set to leave his side
I thought for sure I'd die alone
[Verse 2]
He reminded me of Jesus Christ
The calmness of his martyrdom
The endless empty of his cup
The smell of cedar in his clothes
[Chorus]
I hope he'll find a saltine cracker girl
To get him good and clean
I hope he'll find it in his bleeding heart
To never think of me
Don't ever think of me
[Verse 3]
His brother was an army man
Paranoia in his eye
He's probably seen a million things
That make him wish he could just die
[Verse 4]
He reminded me of Jesus Christ
Carrying a heavy load
His trigger finger pops a can
Of beer to forget what he knows
[Chorus]
His is the only face
That I have ever swung at while I screamed
I hope he finds it in his broken heart
To never think of me
Don't ever think of me
Don't ever think of me
Don't ever think of me
[Chorus]
I hope he'll find a saltine cracker girl
To get him good and clean
I hope he finds it in his bleeding heart
Don't ever think of me
