May The Devil Swing By

from Forgotten Fishbowl by Henry Crook Bird

/

lyrics

I don't like songs about the rain
I've heard too many in my time
And it's an overdrawn cliche
That life is hell beneath the morbid skies of gray

So throw one on the fire
Wrap your weary feet and lie down next to me
May the devil swing by at the crack of dawn and turn around once again
'Cause tonight my dear, we ain't got a one place to go

He's bound to break the door down soon
He'll smell the fear from a land away
Worn to dust from the longer days
Temper sanded thin, head's an awful ache

So throw one on the fire
Wrap your weary feet and lie down next to me
May the devil swing by at the crack of dawn and turn around once again
'Cause tonight my dear, we ain't got a one place to go

We've got no plan to plan ahead
It never works out anyhow
And I've left a couple points unsaid
We'll break it piece by piece, run when the levee's down

So throw one on the fire
Wrap your weary feet and lie down next to me
May the devil swing by at the crack of dawn and turn around once again
'Cause tonight my dear, we ain't got a one place to go
