yarn - strikes and gutters lyrics
i woke up this morning
feeling strikes and gutters
like i’ve been told
and i know i’ve had a hard one
when i start quoting rex moroux
it’s a hard life
but it;s my life
and it’s the only one i know
last night i made love to a woman
i ain’t never seen before
my bedroom tells a story
of a long and lonely night
so i read on
the white residue empty bottles too
tell me all i need to know
it’s so hard to stay away
when a lonely night turns to colder days
a bitter man doesn’t seem to have no say
strikes and gutters pave the way
i did my best not to hurt her
and i told her that i must
be getting on
she moved quick like lightning
and with one blink
she was off and gone
i guess she knows the rules
she knows the game
she knows how it goes
when you’re alone
why can’t i settle down
and meet somebody
that don’t make my heart
feel like stone
it’s so hard to stay away
when a lonely night turns to colder days
a bitter man doesn’t seem to have no say
strikes and gutters pave the way
it’s so hard to make a change
when all i done was live this way
a bitter man don’t seem to have no shame
when strikes and gutters pave the way
