lyrics

By the old marquee
the west side of town
the tumbleweed are all lined up for the next trip
down
to get some rest
from this bed of nails
from the siren squalls
and the county jails

sometimes you care
sometimes you don’t
oh if the ground, it opened up, swallowed this town
whole
who’d begrudge a man
a little peace
oh from a world
brought him to his knees

I wanna feel those tenderhooks
tearing into warm flesh
cause everywhere that I look
there’s hardly any here left
to save
from the sinkhole’s edge
here in the land of the not quite dead

So now I roll
like those tumbleweed
all through that dark & empty pageant of city streets
through all those towns
that time forgot
through all those hearts
worn coarse and rough

I wanna feel those tenderhooks
tearing into warm flesh
cause everywhere that I look
there’s hardly any here left
to save
from the sinkhole’s edge
here in the land of the not quite deadI wanna feel those tenderhooks
tearing into warm flesh
cause everywhere that I look
there’s hardly any here left
to save
from the sinkhole’s edge
here in the land of the not quite there
here in the land of the not quite dead
