Wino's Lullaby
Well I poured myself from this lonely bottle My clown shoes got hung in the neck And I dangled there in amazement At the man who can't pay the check Tried to trace my staggering footsteps As they wander side-by-side And I?m walking along to the melody Of the wino's lullaby Wino's lullaby, wino's lullaby, Wino's lullaby, wino's lullaby The path I follow, it wanders Through laughter and liquor and song The beautiful shows, the highs and lows The time always seems too long Boys and girls are all falling in love And soaring to dizzying heights The breakdowns, the shakedowns, The setups, the knockdowns Early morning under the lights Music is my lover My killer and my surprise I'm playing along to the melody Of the wino's lullaby Songtexte Chorus Well I drag myself from the madness And follow my heart back home This woman's she's been waiting And feeling awfully alone We suffer here in the silence As she is starting to cry I'm falling asleep to the melody Of the wino's lullaby Chorus (Thanks to Angie for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
