Nothing To Lose

You better double up our double down

I heard that Lenny Spooks was dead

They're putting shiny copper pennies

On his tiny little head

Horses they still run

Ladies of the night

Still walk these streets in patent leather shoes

They're is blood on every corner

But momma I don't mind

You know I ain't got nothing to lose

They said we were gonna have a good time

They said that everyone was invited

We all went down to Hollywood California

But honey don't get too excited

They'll tie you to the railroad spine

They'll run you through your paces

They'll leave you stranded in the shadows

Dying in the pews

Till you ain't got nothing to lose

Time may come and heal the pain inside my heart

But I know these scars they will never fade away

Tomorrow's not a promise that's what she used to say

Boy you just be lucky that you eve got today

And though I'm barely breathing I ain't shaking in my shoes

You know I ain't got nothing to lose

You better double up or double down

You know there ain't know way to fight it

Not with your nickel plated shirt stains

Not with your bottles of dilauded

You're lying in the sun drowning in the night

You got everything 'cept something I can use

There's blood on every corner but momma I don't mind
