Boneyard Moan

作曲 : Clifford Johnson

作词 : Clifford Johnson

stranded on down by the highway side

it's four o'clock at night

stranded down along the highway side

I don’t understand

why Mr. Taxi driver man

always gotta slow down to deny me

just keep driving by

cause I'm not fit to beg or plead

like a hangman always trying to pick a fight

like a hangman always trying to pick a fight

I just had to move

somethin' knocked me off my groove

I buckled underneath the heavy load

now I'm fit to ramble

searching high and low for things I'm owed

deep secrets in the countryside

deep secrets the countryside

nothing feels quite right

have to wonder if someone's trying to off me

cause it's dark enough out here

to go out on a killing spree

the signal on my mobile phone

vanished down this one way road

the leaves and the trees leave warnings

the boneyard moan like a lullaby painted in grey

I gotta get myself out of this jam

and get myself back to the jam

the outskirts of this town

everything's shut down

this can't be the place I gotta go

cant' recognize these streets

oh mercy how'd I get so low

one thing I regret

I never got to crack the lonely lovers code

so leave me here to bleed out

all alone on the side of this road
