The Grave
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.
Blue skies shining down, oh lord, what can it be?
You got the gift of your morale, but you know ain’t nothin’s free
Red skies burning bright, it’s another dark day’s night
Just a prayer to bloody sacrement of everything all right
Well anything is possible, if you got the means
You just call your friend who lives within, for everything he brings
And what you want is a pick-me-up, well I got just what you need
You just take this gift, that tit-for-tat, but you know ain’t nothin’s free
'Cause the day I saw the grave, I just knew I’d misbehave
Going out there every night, drinking whiskey, shooting dice
Thinking nothing but myself, thinking nothing about my health
Crazy women all the way, I could do this every day
I owe it all to you
(Shake it baby)
(Shake it baby)
I owe it all to you
(Shake it baby)
(Shake it baby)
Well the nights are growing longer now and I lift your name on high
Burning every wick from end to end, but never question why
And I’ve lost the hope, I’ve lost the feeling, I’ve lost the times of days gone by
When you’re dancing with the devil, it’s so easy you don’t have to try
'Cause the day I saw the grave, I just knew I’d misbehave
Going out there every night, drinking whiskey, shooting dice
Thinking nothing about my health, thinking nothing but myself
Crazy women all the way, I could do this every day
But we all need our motivation, we all need our bit of fun
You can give away your dollar bill, but can you really name one single thing
One selfless act you’ve ever done
'Cause the day I saw the grave, I just knew I’d misbehave
Going out there every night, drinking whiskey, shooting dice
Thinking nothing about my health, thinking nothing but myself
Crazy women all the way, I could do this every day
I owe it all to you
I owe it all to you
I owe it all to you
I owe it all to you
I owe it all to you
