Mystery Song #1

Baby I can't make it straight

My boots got stuck and I can't wait

You're the one who's got no tongue

Look and see which way it's run

Man alive, I can't drive my too big cares away

Obituaries I seen right through

Brochures of the times we knew

Taxes on the days we spent

Repossessed and named and chained

Man alive, I can't drive my too big cares away



Accusations, suspects named

Battered husbands, cousins blamed

Holdin up your trophy bones

Sticks and stones and lesser knowns

Man alive, I can't drive my too big cares away

And all your hopes can be derailed

Low salt (? ) in the seas you sailed

No dreams in the night you lie

All the stars stripped from the sky

Man alive, I can't drive my too big cares away

Man alive, I can't drive my too big cares away
