[00:01.09]Everybodys talking like they cant sit down
[00:03.39]And looking like they cant stand up
[00:05.76]It must be the lastest style
[00:09.82]And theyve seen a lot of things that you never see
[00:13.38]Back on the mile up to the hanging tree
[00:19.06]Some people cant keep their fingers clean
[00:20.99]Just clicking their heels to the beat of the scene
[00:26.48]Trying to keep careen until the first edition of last nights obituries
[00:34.28]Jump up--hold on tight
[00:37.71]Cant trust the promise or a guarantee
[00:40.84]Cause the man round the curve says that hes never heard
[00:44.08]Of you or me
[00:48.57]No tombstone would ever surprise me
[00:51.38]When Im locked in a room about half the size of a matchbox
[00:55.88]Got holes in my socks
[00:58.12]They match the ones that I got in my feet
[01:01.11]I put my feet in the holes in the street and somebody paved me over
[01:06.61]I was a statue standing on the corner
[01:09.48]Tell me how else can a boy get to see those pretty pleats
[01:17.03]Candidate talkin on the radio from the cheaters jamboree
[01:23.31]It must be their lastest fool
[01:25.67]Cause its a two-horse race and he changed his bets
[01:28.86]Like it was just another brand of cigarettes
[01:35.16]Some people judge and they just guess the rest
[01:38.15]They cant understand that dont mean that youre blessed
[01:42.77]They ought to catch the express next stop no where
[01:46.89]That way you can forget
[01:51.99]Jump up--hold on tight
[01:54.80]Cant trust the promise or a guarantee
[01:58.05]Cause the man round the curve says that hes never heard
[02:01.99]Of you or me
