Old lady Rose looking down her nose

At lonely miss Lily hiding in the hall

Lily's just praying for the trial to be over

Rosy's just waiting for the axe to fall

Show me off on the way to town

The sky's still shiny and the earth's still brown

Tell the judge I'm ready for the (?????)

Gonna' dance in their faces when the guitar sounds

It won't be long I'll be long gone

I been leaning toward the shadows all along

Those in the know say how it goes

You plan on reaping you better sow

You plan on sleeping you better keep moving

Sleeping ain't allowed around here you know

Tell me please when the rolling's over

Me and my baby gonna' have some fun

Bury our backs in a bed of clover

Smile in style while the sun goes down

Snake eyes cry, boxcar sigh

Oh, seven's in the middle just wondering why

The dark don't lie and dreams come true

All it takes is one or two

Maybe just a few will see you through
