Dessa - Skeleton Key lyrics
[Dessa - Skeleton Key lyrics]
I haven't met a locked door
Yet that I couldn't beat
On a chain around my neck
I keep my skeleton key
Don't waste your worry on me
I always find what I need
Come and go as I please
I've got my skeleton key
By now it's just a simple trick
Not much to see
You hear the tumblers catch and click
Then turn the key but, I've found work and
Welcome everywhere I've been
Cause everyone's got someplace they
Wanna be let in
Along the way
The old men call me by mother's name
She looked just the same, they say
The children wave
Or hide behind their mother's skirts afraid
Strangers here still seem strange
They hear the accent
Know I'm from nowhere near
But, I speak the language and
I know the customs here
I come from over the horizon
Pass through every dozen years
Go home, tell of my arrival
The skeleton key's here
I've got my my skeleton, my skeleton key
I've got my, got my, got my
My skeleton, my skeleton key, yeah
Don't you go waste all your worry on me
Cause, I'll make my way with my skeleton key
Yet that I couldn't beat
On a chain around my neck
I keep my skeleton key
Don't waste your worry on me
I always find what I need
Come and go as I please
I've got my skeleton key
By now it's just a simple trick
Not much to see
You hear the tumblers catch and click
Then turn the key but, I've found work and
Welcome everywhere I've been
Cause everyone's got someplace they
Wanna be let in
Along the way
The old men call me by mother's name
She looked just the same, they say
The children wave
Or hide behind their mother's skirts afraid
Strangers here still seem strange
They hear the accent
Know I'm from nowhere near
But, I speak the language and
I know the customs here
I come from over the horizon
Pass through every dozen years
Go home, tell of my arrival
The skeleton key's here
I've got my my skeleton, my skeleton key
I've got my, got my, got my
My skeleton, my skeleton key, yeah
Don't you go waste all your worry on me
Cause, I'll make my way with my skeleton key
