Artist/Band: Walkabouts
Lyrics for Song: Jumping Off
Lyrics for Album: See Beautiful Rattlesnake Gardens [1988]



Dressed in jealous clothes

She drove to the black hole

Out past to where the roads turn into sand

No crmies worth a dime

'Less you look it in the eye



And she drove

And she drove

Past the debts that he owed

Past the ends she can't meet



Jumping off is the air that I breathe

Jumping off is the air that I breathe

And I should have swindled And I should have lied

And I should have jumped

When the chance was mine



Tied up in your sleep

Like a tiger with no teeth

Can't confess to things you've never done

Soup left on the stove

And the cellar barred and closed



And she drove

And she drove

Past the debts that he owed

Past the ends she can't keep

Jumping off is the air that I breathe

Jumping off is the air that I breathe

And I should have swindled

And I should have lied

And I should have jumped

When the chance was mine



Hold your horses

And hold your britches

And hold the handle

on you suspicious drink

Drink to your health

Drink to your wealth

Drink if you think it will make a difference



And hold your britches

And hold the handle

on you suspicious drink

Drink to your health

Drink to your wealth

Drink if you think it makes a difference
