Tow - The Devil Makes Three[00:00:00]
Written by:The Devil Makes Three[00:00:01]
Someone left a child and did not even care[00:00:29]
Before the first shots of the battle here had even[00:00:34]
Pierced the air[00:00:39]
Yes they run now like them children to those arms[00:00:41]
Of mother earth[00:00:45]
Trying to pretend as if was a day before their very birth[00:00:48]
But me I just grab these ropes that me and[00:00:54]
Mine have left behind[00:00:59]
And I stare up to that mountain that I know[00:01:02]
I got to climb[00:01:06]
I keep towin that line[00:01:08]
Mmmmmm[00:01:11]
I keep towin that line[00:01:15]
Mmmmmm[00:01:18]
But down in basements choked with smoke child of the past[00:01:24]
All them dreams come up for air round here but[00:01:29]
They can only gasp[00:01:34]
All them old men they sit staring as life slips[00:01:36]
Out of their grips[00:01:41]
Only to fall and disappear beyond their cracked old fingertips[00:01:43]
But me I just grab these ropes me and mine[00:01:50]
Have left behind[00:01:55]
Yes I stare up to that mountain that I know[00:01:57]
I've got to climb[00:02:02]
I keep towin that line[00:02:03]
Mmmmmm[00:02:07]
I keep towin that line[00:02:10]
Mmmmmm[00:02:14]
I keep towin that line[00:02:45]
Mmmmmm[00:02:48]
I keep towin that line[00:02:51]
Mmmmmm[00:02:55]
But down in ditches by that road I call my own[00:03:01]
All of you come a cussin' now all and all[00:03:06]
Just throwing stones[00:03:10]
Yes they're big men now to settle down and life's[00:03:13]
So stale and cold[00:03:17]
As if I had to spend my life the way[00:03:20]
They do just as they're told[00:03:24]
So if you should find me living low[00:03:27]
When the miles have passed me by[00:03:30]
And it seems that I have left now all that[00:03:34]
I could love behind[00:03:38]
I'm just towin that line[00:03:40]
Mmmmmm[00:03:43]
I'm just towin that line[00:03:47]
Mmmmmm[00:03:50]
