chris ross - all the way down lyrics

(verse 1)
glass in her hand as she ponders and paces
plottin’ escape from rocks and hard places
she says “nick it ain’t always been this hard i’m tired of this livin’ let’s take what ours”
and nick is just a boy in an old mans town
school in’ didn’t suit him so he dropped right out
he looks at her now all ragged and sick
pulls her in close says “we’ll get rich quick”
and it looks like now they’re headed all the way down

(verse 2)
now they’ve both been scratchin’ since they turned 16
pickin’ that cotton just to hush those screams
times runnin’ short and lucks runnin’ thin
nick’s got a gun and a greedy man’s grin
and there’s a little ole lady all skin and bones
they’ve got a tip, she’s got a script and she’s livin’ alone
so they pay a little visit and they get away clean
n0body got hurt, n0body got seen
and it looks like now they’re headed all the way down

(chorus)
down where the angels don’t dare to dance
across the cold river of a hearts last chance
singin’ with the devil to a pale half moon
howlin’ with the wolves now a desperate tune
down at the bottom of a wishless well
the aimless roam, the shameless dwell
fallin’ like a feather with a silent shout
now they’re headed all the way down
(verse 3)
way out in the woods where the eastbrook roars
nicks got his eye on a generous score
we’ll get in, we’ll get out, we’ll get out of these sticks
out to california with a golden fix
but at the house at the end of the long dirt road
there’s a man whose hands ain’t ever been slow
and he’s been dreamin’ of a time before he got so deep
between the money and the pills he can’t get no sleep
and it looks like now they’re headed all the way down

(verse 4)
so it’s knock, knock, knock and the screen door swung
she’s standin’ in the moonlight lookin’ so young
says she’s broke down and she needs a lift
nicks around the corner with a gun on his hip
but when the shots come ringin’ they ring to loud
three holes in his jacket, nicks on the ground
she looks at him now all covered in blood
pulls him in close, her one true love
and it looks like now they’re headed all the way down

chorus)
down where the angels don’t dare to dance
across the cold river of a hearts last chance
singin’ with the devil to a pale half moon
howlin’ with the wolves now a desperate tune
down at the bottom of a wishless well
the aimless roam, the shameless dwell
fallin’ like a feather with a silent shout
now they’re headed all the way down
