Jakob Dylan
Everybody Pays As They Go
Worried ’bout you babyDown in your rabbit holeThe evening of our great escapeIs starting to unfoldOut of bed sleepy headIt’s different than you knowEverybody pays as they goYou’ve got to pull yourself togetherYour chin up off your throatWhistle for the dogsAnd get your sled into the snowNothing’s ever buriedUnder skull and bonesEverybody pays as they goThe playing field is levelBut it’s ugly down belowIt’s a devil of handbook hi ho hi hoEither you’re the butcherOr the lamb but even soEverybody pays as they goThe future busted open wide and ranLike a beehive loaded with sandYou can’t go back and see itSongtexteThe way that you saw it thenNobody canLook up and see the men returningIn their winter coatsSome of them in one pieceSome of them got rolledSome less than othersSome right though the noseBut everybody pays as they goYoung old rich and poorYour mother she too owesCuz everybody pays as they go
