The harness eyes are breaking What's this world a coming too If it wasn't for you I don't know what I'd do My heart is aching, can I take a little booze I'm waiting at the window With the lonesome tremolo blues
The world is on fire The moon is hanging from a string I wake up in the night, Lift my head up and start to dream What's wrong with everyone? How far does it gotta go? Until the dogs of greed, fall down, And drown in snow
You give them all your time And you do your work well But your compensation, is just a fraction of the sale You fell like a buffalo in the belly of a whale While the sick and the poor still, Hanging on the nail
I'm a stranger here and I'm a stranger everywhere I could go home but, I'm a stranger there Aint it hard to stumble,When you got no place to fall I aint' got no place, babe, In this world at all
