Robbie Fulks - Backwater Blues şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Robbie Fulks

albüm: Bluegrass Vacation


Done with the compass, done with the chart
Stuck in the shallows I know by heart
Thoughts of the future are yesterday's news
The sun never sets on these backwater blues
I came to sample the tropical place
I'll likely stay 'til the dirt hits my face
I went and hung up my working man shoes
Planted my toes in the backwater blues
Tin cup for coffee, dirt for a yard
Old Daltons sleep in the moon
Long as you're living, you're lost in this spell
And when you're dead, well, man, who can tell?
Bridge to the mainland is closed for repairs
Peg-legged policeman is sleepin' in jail
Could be the boredom, could be the booze
Even the cops get them backwater blues
♪
Tin cup for coffee, dirt for a yard
That flop-eared bitch rarely movies
Try not to breathe lest you take in a smell
Try not to stop 'cause
Done with the compass, done with the chart
Stuck in the shallows I know by heart
My mind's drugged, now I'm too stoned to choose
Alls I got left are the backwater blues, no
Sun never sets on these backwater blues
