Recorded on the river in Georgetown after 7 Corona Lights and a bottle of excellent red wine. Jeff Vandiver on table percussion.
lyrics
Never should have started
Never should have rolled up my sleeves
Now I’m on the floor, I don’t know what to believe
It took me 4 long hours ‘til I was back on my feet
Never thought I’d fall to pieces
Never thought that I would fall at all
Now I’m staring face to face with my demons
They said, “you’ve screwed up good this time
Now your back’s up against, your back’s up against the wall”
Livin’ should be easy, you only gotta stay alive
We do our best to end it, it happens all the time
I’m going to finish this verse, it doesn’t even have to rhyme
Never thought I’d fall to pieces
Never thought that I would fall at all
Now I’m staring face to face with my demons
They said, “you’ve screwed up good this time
Now your back’s up against, your back’s up against the wall”
- harmonica -
Never thought I’d fall to pieces
Never thought that I would fall at all
Now I’m staring face to face with my demons
They said, “you’ve screwed up good this time
Now your back’s up against, your back’s up against the wall”
