"Borrowed Rooms and Old Wood Floors" (Lyrics)
Sorority sister, Mississippi
Old high school friend in Kansas City
The only thing that we have left to talk about are faded memories
I don’t sleep at all or I sleep too much
Can’t sleep through a crying baby or a garbage truck
There’s a note out on the counter saying help yourself to anything that you please
Borrowed rooms and old wood floors
I lay me down at night
You don’t ask where home is anymore
It’s just borrowed rooms and old wood floors
Shower’s hot, hope it lasts
Hair is getting longer down my back
I slip under the water, close my eyes and let it wash me clean
I live in other people’s homes
Finish up the pot of coffee when it’s cold
But my mother raised me right, I always write a thank you note and strip the sheets
Borrowed rooms and old wood floors
I lay me down at night
You don’t ask where home is anymore
It’s just borrowed rooms and old wood floors
Was it this cold last year, I can’t remember
The leaves are turning early for September
I wish that I could stick around
Another drive, another show, another stranger’s house
Borrowed rooms and old wood floors
I lay me down at night
You don’t ask where home is anymore
It’s just borrowed rooms and old wood floors
Borrowed rooms and old wood floors
With a quarter million miles under her belt and counting, North Carolina native Emily Scott Robinson travels the dusty highways of America's wild country, capturing the stories of the people she meets and expertly crafting them into songs. Robinson received critical acclaim for her debut album Traveling Mercies-- Rolling Stone named it one of the “40 Best Country and Americana Albums of 2019.” In 2021, Robinson signed with Oh Boy records, the label founded by the legendary John Prine, and released her follow-up album American Siren. It made numerous “Best of 2021” lists including NPR, Rolling Stone, American Songwriter, and No Depression. In 2022, Robinson released a collaboration for theater called Built on Bones, a song cycle written for the Witches of Shakespeare's Macbeth, featuring artists Alisa Amador and Violet Bell.
