Mouth Harp Man

mouth harp man

when yer tongues tied up in a knot and yer unravelin' inside
take a bead on a nice clean shot
turn it loose go on and cry
listen to the mouth harp man

when you're knocked down cold and flat
and yer feelin' black and blue
chewed out and fed up jack
closen yer eyes and tap dem boots
listen to the mouth harp man

he's blowin' sad as acid rain
sweet as bessie's sugarcane
you can feel it upside and down below
the right side of your brain
listen to the mouth harp man
listen to the man

when lightnin' strikes the dice
and dem snake eyes take a bite
pull the shade baracade the door
you cant fake it anymore
listen to the mouth harp man
chorus

now there's a train wreck in yer head
and yer heartbeats leavin' town
sit down shutup go on to bed
close your eyes go on and cry
listen to the mouth harp man
chorus
chorus
