The Midnight Wrens - Blood from a Stone Lyrics
Official




The day to day wasn't going great
I packed my things and staged me a jailbreak
Headed west through Tennessee
Across the Smokey Mountains to the river
Caught a ride on an 18 wheeler
Had a way of making me feel like
A million bucks free on the road
Burned a hole in my Sunday best
On women and wine and little rest
All my troubles seemed to fade away, away, away, away
A passionate while with a Scorpio
In the Texas heat her sting all but killed me
So I beat it north to Colorado
Where the mountain girls and the greener earth revived me
Sunlight on the canyon side
Shadows under the arches high
Finally landed me in Vegas
There I fell in love with a one night stand
I kissed her slowly as she held my hand
Begging me not to leave, to leave, to leave, to leave
Nice to meet you my dear
But you don't know who you're dealing with
I'm a bastard son from Ocracoke
And I've no intention of being faithful
Gentle smile and a heart of gold
I make women miserable
Can't squeeze blood from a stone
I aim to
Get up and leave you
Get up and leave you on your own
At last I reached the Golden Gate
And stumbled 'cross to the banks of Sausalito
There I nestled in an artist's cradle
But she couldn't meet my needs like ol' Frisco
There an eye's for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
You get what you give and you win and you lose
No mistaken when you find the right people
You can say what you want
Be found and lost
Naked and humbled and battled and crossed
Be your church and your steeple
Nice to meet you my dear
But you don't know who you're dealing with
I'm a bastard son from Ocracoke
And I've no intention of being faithful
Gentle smile and a heart of gold
I make women miserable
Can't squeeze blood from a stone
I aim to
Get up and leave you
Get up and leave you on your own
Aim to
Get up and leave you
Get up and leave you on your own
