I’m all I ever was
You’re all you want to be
Lord I’ve tried and I have failed, yeah
It’s true you see right through me
Oh how to reach you on the fly
To catch a dead man’s eye
Call me crazy call me out
I’m comin’ for you in the rain
In the tears and all your sorrows
There’s no smoke without a flame
And the lucky they can pray
And the lost will have their day
Keep your wits on the prize boy
And don’t go rockin’ this boat
Ain’t gonna make it inside or out
Without a little whisky in my throat
Take your hate and your cheap deal love
Give it up for the cause
Girl don’t do what the bad man says
She gonna do what she wants
Keep your wits on the prize boy
And don’t go rockin’ this boat
Ain’t gonna make it inside or out
Without a little whisky in my throat
Take your hate and your cheap deal love
And give it up for the cause
Girl don’t do what the bad man says
She gonna do what she wants
Took the devil’s advice
And you ask who cares
A world of guilt and someone waiting
And the trees count the years
Now there’s nobody on your side
To catch a dead man’s eye
I’m all I ever was
You’re all you want to be
Lord I’ve tried and I have failed, yeah
It’s true you see right through me
Oh how to reach you on the fly
To catch a dead man’s eye
