Cleanup Hitter |
Everybody’s in this together now |
Why you wanna break your back? |
Pushing through the wind and the weather now |
Lay another mile of track |
He was a friend of mine |
His heart was full of flames |
He swung that hammer |
Like a hard driving rain |
Give him a familiar name |
Becka’s goin' out to the dance tonight |
Why you wanna cut your tongue? |
Try to keep it out of the disco light |
Thinkin' back on when he was young |
We never talk that much |
I never knew her grace |
But he was helpless |
When the light fell on her face |
Nothing ever stays in its place |
Wash my face in a clear cool stream |
Try to shake off last night’s dream |
Man, it’s hard when you got it down into your soul |
Maybe my sister’s just got all the good luck |
Maybe I missed it when the lightning struck |
Just can’t keep livin' off of rock 'n' roll |
He spit until his mouth could take no more |
The dust and leather scattered splinters across the floor |
He never questioned who it was he did it for |
Nail it to the back of the door |
