Nick Cave - Sleeping on the Blacktop lyrics

Artist: Nick Cave

album: Hell Or High Water (Original Soundtrack Album)


Sunshine beating on the good times
Moonlight raising from the grave
String band playing worn out honkey-tonks
Pretty young thing going dancing in the rain
♪
♪
High heel lady spitting at the nickajacks
Business man with a needle and a spoon
Coyote chewing on a cigarette
Pack o' young boys going howlin' at the moon
Hey darlin'
Sleeping on the blacktop
Hey darlin'
Running through the trees, honey
Hey darlin'
Leaving for the next town
Less'n my sense catches up with me
♪
Three dead in a crash on the number 4
Two witnesses below and up high
Not sure who's will be done
You can call me a sinner for a-wondering why
Hey darlin'
Sleeping on the blacktop
Hey darlin'
Running through the trees, honey
Hey darlin'
Leaving for the next town
Less'n my sense catches up with me
♪
Corn liquour tastes sweeter in this town
Could it be it's the same as the last?
I swear I've seen ya face elsewhere before
Just as familiar as a bottle and a glass
Hey darlin'
Sleeping on the blacktop
Hey darlin'
Running through the trees, honey
Hey darlin'
Leaving for the next town
Less'n my sense catches up with me
Hey darlin'
Sleeping on the blacktop
Hey darlin'
Running through the trees honey
Hey darlin'
Leaving for the next town
Less'n my sense catches up with me
♪
Hmm, hmm
Less'n my sense catches up with me
