Cowboy Junkies - Cowboy Junkies Lament Lyrics

Send "Cowboy Junkies Lament" ringtone to your cell

Baby hit the back door breathin' real heavy

Said the boys in the alley wouldnt leave her alone

Mama did her make-up in a terrible hurry

She finally got ready but the boys were gone

Mama dont you worry nights approachin'

Theres a hole in heaven where some sin slips through

Just close your eyes and dream real steady

Maybe just a little spill on you

Dark dont lie dreams come true

Could be a few will see you through

Old lady Rose lookin' down her nose

Lonely miss Lily hiding in the hall

Lilys just praying for the trial to be over

Lady Rose just waiting for the axe to fall

Show me off on the way to town

The skys still shiny and the earths still brown

Tell the judge Im ready for the vases

Dance in their faces when the guitar sounds

Wont be long I wont be gone

Been leaning toward the shadows all along

Those in the know say so it goes

You plan on reapin' you better sow

You plan on sleepin' you better keep movin'

Sleepin' aint allowed around here you know

Down the place when the rollin's over

Me and my baby gonna have some fun

Bury your bags bury the cloths

Smilin' star as the sun goes down

Snake eyes cry boxcars sigh

Sevens stuck in the middle just wonderin' why?

Dark dont lie dreams come true

All it takes is one or two maybe just a few will see you through
