Artist/Band: Quarterflash
Lyrics for Song: Shakin' The Jinx
Lyrics for Album: Take Another Picture [1983]



It's just too easy to hide in these trees

Rust in this water up to your knees

Not many dreamers ever get out alive

Some kind of sickness sleeps in this town

I barely got out, but so many drown

The more you struggle,

The faster you're gonna sink

You're shakin', you're shakin' the jinx

You're beating the odds by the skin of your teeth

Baby, baby, it's a long way down

They want to be there when you hit the ground

You gotta shake it right in their face and smile

And when you've got 'em right in the palm of your hand

You don't need 'em 'cause you understand

So you turn slowly and you give the boys one last wink

And then...

You're shakin', you're shakin' the jinx

You're beating the odds by the skin of your teeth



You gotta face the fools who put sand in the gears

You gotta shake a fist at a thousand different fears

You gotta break it, fake it

But never let 'em know what you think

While...

You're shakin', you're shakin' the jinx

You're beating the odds by the skin of your teeth
