Roll & Tumble

Salt in the sorrow and the sugar blooms

Consign yer bags to the hand of doom

Slick as death the velvet pistol starts

Like fat blood in a dying swimmer's heart

Roll and tumble and lose yer tunes

Life is a junker and a waiting room

Mercy be nimble and grace be slow

Juvenile walk lonesome and talk as low

 

Low as the fog and the dogs and grass

Weed out yer broken and stay in last

Hands of the sunshine are the hands of gold

Feet in the clay and yer feeling old

Put on yer muddy boots and walk out in the yard

So many things to bury but the ground is hard

Live like a racoon stay up all night

Bind yer worries smokin' and ya hold 'em tight

 

Roll and tumble and lose yer tunes

Life is a junker and a waiting room

Mercy be nimble and grace rush in

The beginning you bury and you keep the end
