Back to the Races Lyrics & Tabs by Chadwick Stokes
Back to the Races
guitar chords lyrics
I wish I could not say
Then I wouldn't have to lie
But it's gonna be okay
I met more honest men inside
But I never met a cop
Who didn't like his jackets straight
Never met a jailer who wasn't on the take
Yeah, but I'd rather be a bum than a bitch
I'd rather catch a dog than a switch
I'd rather get a meal than a kiss but I
I wouldn't mind both
You're just a belly rubber with the right last name
Boarding house boss you better lower that cane
And when it all falls out we'll be halfway to the horn
Thank the gandy dancers for a path well worn
Boarding house boss you better lower that cane
And when it all falls out we'll be halfway to the horn
Thank the gandy dancers for a path well worn
Yeah, but I'd rather be a bum than a bitch
I'd rather pull the pin than the switch
I'd rather be a coke than a kid but I
I wouldn't mind both
We are sold to the highest bidder
We are down to our very last crumb
May we invite ourselves to dinner
'Cause we might just have to make a run
Dreaming of their wives and dreaming of their soap
I traded all the coin for the faro and the dope
Looking for high heels in the crowbar hotel
Just an Angelina and a n'er do well
Yeah, but I'd rather be a bum than a bitch
I'd rather catch a dog than a switch
I'd rather get a meal than a kiss but
I wouldn't mind both
We are sold to the highest bidder
We are down to our very last crumb
May we invite ourselves to dinner
'Cause we might just have to make a run
We are sold to the highest bidder
We are down to our very last crumb
May we invite ourselves to dinner
'Cause we might just have to make a run
We are sold to the highest bidder
We are down to our very last crumb
May we invite ourselves to dinner
And then we're down and on the run
Yeah, down and on the run
