kev carmody – black bess lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
black bess in white lights, all covered in blue
she trips out on a cocaine ’cause there’s nothin’ to do
since a man and his gland, they up and shot through
you lose most in lovin’, you win only a few

[chorus]
time, lord, it drags heavy on me
sad evenin’s alone and my thoughts are on she
fear that down here you seldom can see
do you have an idea what lonely can be?

[verse 2]
his delight at the sight of a worn apple skin
goes with his hat in his hand to the next rubbish tin
he’s consoled by the role that his bottle will bring
means as much to his bein’ as a throne to a king

[chorus]
time, lord, it drags heavy on me
sad evenin’s alone and my thoughts are on she
fear that down here you seldom can see
do you have an idea what lonely can be?

[verse 3]
see he with his ego on his own shadow fall
saw a caged man with his bare hands bust through a brick wall
for forty+five years of his life, he had sh+rn
then he wakes up one mornin’ to find his life gone
[chorus]
time, lord, it drags heavy on me
sad evenin’s alone and my thoughts are on she
fear that down here you seldom can see
do you have an idea what lonely can be?

[verse 4]
frankie’s vietnam was spent dodgin’ lead
but eventually the enemy blew off his head
his weight was a feather as we carried them in
one half of a friend they sent home in a tin

[chorus]
time, lord, it drags heavy on me
sad evenin’s alone and my thoughts are on she
fear that down here you seldom can see
do you have an idea what lonely can be?

[guitar solo]
