Slide Machine

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Down south where they use the slide machine

Where the gods of old are heard but seldom seen

And here I been just stuck up in between

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you

Well the slide machine it sweeps bones right off the road

For the tandem trucks and the moats that they towed

And me, I've just been looking for one going slow

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you

My woman here she's got a dozen names

She's sought by soldiers and they try to keep her tame

and her rewards will leave them, just the same

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you

Down south where they use the slide machine

Where the gods of cold are heard but seldom seen

And here I been just stuck up in between

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you

Trying to, trying to, trying to get back to you
