living with the law - chris whitley lyrics

living with the law chris whitley

brother runnin’ powder money
daddy’s somewhere on a drunk
in the hours, after washing
i do my dreaming with a gun

well i come down from the country
find a lesson in the draw
there ain’t no secrets in the city
it’s hard living with the law

they got machines, mama i can’t figure
they got a romance made for doing time
send me out child, running outside
out along a world of crime

gonna swing my scythe, got a hand upon the handle
gonna shade my children ways i understand
milk the trigger, kill the hunger
staring down this broken land

so fetch on up your greasy apr-n
spread your lover in the straw
hear me baby, i’m nearly crazy
it’s hard living with the law
