Ballad Of A Dead Man

Run little rabbit you cant break the habit for none
Shapes like a rocket and shoots like a pocket gun
Every mothers son
Has spent a lifetime on the run

One by one and two by two
Our hearts beat a rhythm true
Wave goodbye now baby blue
You're exploding like a star into the gloom

I thought I could shut you in
You said baby let me out
I thought that I could pick you up and roll you like a dice yeah

There's hitchhikers thumbing on the verge of the lovers highway
But we just roll on by with the top down the sun's out
I'm so glad when you came along you happened to be going my way
The wheels roll round and round

One by one and two by two
Our hearts beat a rhythm true
Wave goodbye now baby blue
You're exploding like a star into the room

I thought I could shut you in
You said baby pull me out
I thought that I could pick you up and roll you like a dice to get close to you
I could feel it coming in
Here they come they're coming one by one coming two by two
They're coming one by one coming two by two

Yeah if I ever let you down
If anything should come to bleed you dry or cut you out
Don't turn me away

Yeah I never meant to spin you round
If anybody comes to do you harm or pin you down
I'll take your place
I'll take your place
I'll take your place
I'll take your place
If anybody comes to do you harm or pin you down
If anybody comes to pin you down or spin you round
I'll take your place
I'll take your place

If anybody comes to do you harm or pin you down
If anybody comes to pin you down or spin you round
I'll take your place
I'll take your place
