about

This track is from Tennessee Stiffs' new album, "Thirty Pieces". A man finds himself at the end of his rope, feeling downtrodden by the world around him. He decides to take back control.

lyrics

Well I knew, knew, knew the day would come
When I'd make that call
But I'll save that love
For another day
And I sang, sang, sang the songs
That our fathers sung before
But those better days
Are dead and gone

These modern times
These so-called men
Enough to drive you mad
Squandered souls disgrace us all
They fill their greedy pockets all up
To their tailored trim
But that gold gets heavy
When it's sink or swim

So come what may
The train roll on
Only for so long
These complicated tomes

I'll ride, ride, ride until the desert sands wreck my hide
They cross my path and catch my wrath
Just waiting to collide
It's all just a bit of a toll
But it's all a lot of out of control
Alright

I'm lashing sticks right to the steel
While heathens get their sums
The fuse I lit will light their path
From here to Kingdom Come
Well you tell me what I wanted to hear
But your future's never sounded so clear
Alright

So come what may
The train roll on
Only for so long
These complicated tomes

I do, do, do everything that I can
This absolution don't come easy to these dirty hands
I do, do, do everything that I can
This absolution don't come easy to these dirty hands
These dirty hands
These dirty hands
