Get the MP3!

Whiskey, Wine and Rosaries

Maybe it's the way you move
I once saw on a silver screen
maybe it's the way I found
your life size poster of James dean
maybe it's your grace and charm
that every lady on the walk
maybe it's the younger brand
oh reminds you of the way I talk.

well there you are across the street,
another person I could meet
there's no dismissin something's missin
maybe Elvis Presley's listening

See the star up in the movie,
Casino scene, he'll place his bet
His sister was a waitress
On whose arm he stubbed a cigarette
how could someone be so cruel,
that real life behind the scenes
may not be as charming as
the savage truth of waking dreams

Scarred up soul, battered wife
welcome you to real life
there is no dismissin somethings missin,
maybe someone somewhere's listening

(God's) down at the bus stop maybe
or riding on a cross town train
maybe its your own two feet
You see thru all this useless pain
now we'll hold responsible the
self help books the hotline calls
the alcohol the drugs our kids take
the local news, the shopping malls

whiskey, wine and rosaries
call out from an early grave
there's no dismissing somethings missing
maybe no one no where's listening
