The Steel Wheels - Broken Mandolin lyrics

Artist: The Steel Wheels

album: Wild as We Came Here (Deluxe Edition)


Garage door's dented from delivery vans
This used to be a shop where you could turn in your tin cans
Now flowers grow up in the sidewalk
Like they can see and hear and talk the talk and walk the walk
Gave an earthy shining to the midday sun
Stopped to grin at the music he was playing on his broken mandolin
Three dollars to five you've got to spend some real money
The prices keep going up but they never get me where I'm going
Stocked up on old cigarettes
Neighborhood morning meets the day's regret
Gave an earthy shining to the midday sun
Stopped to grin at the music he was playing on his broken mandolin
Never stop dreaming says the can of spray paint
I used to go to church on Sundays cuz I loved to hear them sing
Paint the walls with the blood of the Lamb
Don't know about all that killing
That's not who I am
Gave an earthy shining to the midday sun
Stopped to grin at the music he was playing on his broken mandolin
I'm out here every day like a business man
It's a big ole' world gonna run you as fast as it can
There are some things I've done I'd like to forget
There are some good things I'd like to do I haven't got to yet
Gave an earthy shining to the midday sun
Stopped to grin at the music he was playing on his broken mandolin
