"High in Heels" (Lyrics)

[Chorus:]
High in heels, high on pills
Now who in the hell is gonna pay them bills
Hands are tired, hands are tied
Now who in the hell can get satisfied

We waited on the job but it took too long
Brother got in trouble, now the money's all gone
Mama said, hand out some bottles at the mule
And people still ask me why I didn't go to school

Now you might say, "how could they live that way?"
If they learned to love a dollar they'd have it their way
But daddy's gone, mama tried
Everybody's got their own kind of suicide

[Chorus]

Early one morning someone came to our door
They held a tiny book that said Heaven was in store
And if we believed, then there could be a way out
It seemed like quite a bit to think about

The church-going people know more than I do
And we might need Jesus but we also need food
There's a lot big people, places I ain't been
They all don't know about the shape I'm in

[Chorus]

Daddy's gone, mama tried
Everybody's got their own kind of suicide
Do not criticize what you don't know
And don't call it hell if you're too afraid to go

[Chorus]

With four critically-acclaimed albums under her belt, Kelsey Waldon has forged a strong presence in the Country and Americana scene. Her uncut lyricism and natural country sensibility recall her upbringing in Monkey's Eyebrow, Kentucky. After moving to Nashville, she cultivated a loyal following through frequent touring across the U.S. and two critically acclaimed albums. Her persistence paid off when, on stage at the Grand Ole Opry, John Prine invited Kelsey to join his Oh Boy Records family. In 2019, Kelsey released White Noise / White Lines on Prine's Oh Boy Records. An unflinching work that details Waldon's life, hopes, and pains, the album earned her a nomination for the Emerging Act of the Year Award at the 2020 Americana Awards.
