Lawless Soirez - Gill Landry

Written by：Gill Landry

Lying in my bed got no dreams in my head

But haven't been dragged across the floor

Waiting for the sun buried on the ocean

For what feels like ten thousand years or more

I have seen the mountain and I've walked the valleys

I've been through the cities and I've walked the alleys

On a summer evening with the raccoons grieving

I've seen the cold darkness

I was young and bold falling in love with barmaids

Out on cemetery road

My pockets lined with gold waiting for the crusades

To leave this helpless world alone

I look from flesh and bone on the place that I call home

Standing in the ruins of downtown

Iron lace haunted street it should heal as god made me

But there's nothing than important to me now

I was born a rambler I guess I always will

Once you get the habit you just can't stand still

But now I'm older shovel running like the devil

On my hind legs in the sun

There were many times I wish that I'd stay

But I know I can't go on

And I tried to stay in time but time slips away

Now I'm out here on my own

When you're poor without a dream this whole world keeps getting mean

And happiness is just a word you know

If in a world of pain on ten thousand miles of railroad train

It doesn't really matter where I go

Across the states by moonlight I often wonder

If they'll ever hang me for all the love I stole

Oh Mr Organ Grinder please tell me where to find her

Oh lady luck just dropped me cold

Sometimes I'm lost sometimes I'm driven

Sometimes I know not where to run

They're going to bury me on some forgotten morning

Until then I have no home
