hackensaw boys - cannonball lyrics
[intro]
theres money in tobacco
and a fortune to be made
sellin’ recycled engines
and video arcades
shame we all can’t profit from the measure of our time
we’re payin’ for the wisdom of our crimes
[verse 1]
well a mess of medication
may liberate your mind
leave you stranded in the flood
or bearin’ on that rise
gather ‘round me children
and i will tell you all
about the beautiful disaster
they called the cannonball
[chorus]
cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
well tell the truth
can’t you hear mama call call call
cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
there she goes
[verse 2]
and it took thirteen hundred horses
just to keep her on that line
she ran on radiation
at the speed of fiscal crime
in alaska they got oil
but in florida turpentine
is payin’ for the wisdom of our crimes
[verse 3]
(woo!)
she came out of that gate
like she’d left them all behind
she fooled from the start
down to that finish line
when he thought they’d make a k!lling
[?]
that mighty cannonball
[chorus]
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
well tell the truth
can’t you hear mama call call call
cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
there she goes
[verse 4]
in the glory of combustion
they heard her final cry
all the way from downtown nashville
to the halls of columbine
you’ll future feelin’ sorry for the creatures great and small
who rode atop that mighty cannonball
[chorus]
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
well tell the truth
can’t you hear mama call call call
cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
there she goes
[verse 5]
they wrapped her up in plaster
polished to a perfect shine
they laid her in her grave
with the [?]
nothin’ was delivered
for another to recall
the lessons of that mighty cannonball
[chorus]
cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
well tell the truth
can’t you hear mama call call call
cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
that cannonball (cannonball) (cannonball)
