dave alvin - out of control lyrics
i scored some speed in san berdino
so me and baby could get a little b-mp
and now she? s in that motel room
puttin? on a show for some chump
yeah, well, baby? s gotta make a livin?
and i don? t mind waitin? out in the car
? cause i got some nine millimeter muscle
in case things go too far
you know i try to take it easy, man
and just go with the flow
but sometimes things can get a little bit
out of control
well, my old man worked his whole life
in the kaiser steel slag pit
and i worked there for a while back when i was a kid
but i got tired of all their sh-t
but that was years ago, man
before they tore that fontana plant down
and my old man smoked himself
into a six-foot hole in the ground
and i got the same bad habit
and it? ll probably take its toll
but sometimes it? s the only thing that keeps me
from goin? out of control
well, my ex-wife? s workin? evenings
at a sizzler makin? minimum wage
and she? s cleanin? up other people? s houses
every day just like some slave
and she? s livin? with the kids in a mobile home
just off the 60 freeway
some nights i go to see her
and sometimes she lets me stay
since she found jesus
she? s always tryin? to save my soul
yeah, but every now and then she still likes to get
a little out of control
i used to work a little construction
but i never got along with my boss
so i do a little import export
makin? enough just to cover my costs
and i? m losin? my hair and i? m losin? my teeth
but i? m tryin? to keep my grip
and live to see one more day
without makin? any stupid slips
you know i could have played the game man
and just done what i was told
but i guess i was born just a little bit
out of control
baby gets done in there, i? m gonna
take her for a little ride
cruise up into the mountains
park the car and get a little high
? cause baby likes to look at the shootin? stars
and make wishes as they fly by
and i like lookin? down at the city
from way up there in the sky
then i pull baby close to me
when it starts gettin? cold
close my eyes for a little while and let the world
spin out of control
