The Ballad Of The Devil'S Backbone Tavern (Live)
Todd Snider
5:01A little out of place A little out of tune Sorta lost in space Racing the moon Climbing the walls Of a hurricane Still overall I can't complain All I wanted was one chance To let freedom ring They said I had to get a permit Tags and everything I never made it through the red tape I got this paper hat I got a job working weekdays You want fries with that I got nothin' to lose Nothin' to gain It's like a one-way ticket to cruise in the passing lane I can't complain I was talkin' with my girlfriend I told her I was stressed I said I'm going off the deep end She said "God, for once give it a rest" We're all waiting in the dugout Thinking we should pitch How you gonna throw a shutout If all you do is bitch I got nothin' to lose Nothin' to gain It's like a one-way ticket to cruise in the passing lane I can't complain Now I got a brand-new dance I need one more shot I just need one last chance You know I won't get caught I wanna make my last stand This time I can't be bought Then again on the other hand How much have you got I got nothin' to lose Nothin' to gain It's like a one-way ticket to cruise in the passing lane I can't complain A little out of place A little out of tune Sorta lost in space Racing that moon Climbing the walls of this hurricane Still overall I can't complain Still overall I can't complain Hey, how are you all? I can't complain Will the circle be unbroken? By and by, Lord, by and by There's a better home a-waitin' In the sky, Lord, in the sky
