Yarn - Strikes and Gutters lyrics
[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 its 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
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 its 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
