Roll On - Thea Gilmore
Well darling you don't know me don't think you ever will
I'm another ten part poet another infidel
They're still scrubbing at the stains of the communion wine I spilled
While I roll
Roll roll on
Well get me some good coc*ine get me any feeling left
Show me pretty little dancing girls with collars round their necks
Get me God on the line boys and make that call connect
Oh he'll roll
Roll roll on
Was that girl in the dust drawing breathe or blood
It's so hard to tell between bad taste and good
So just roll
Roll on
There's a train in the distance there's a lineman on the line
There's a hard rain comin it's been comin' a long time
Nobody reads maps no more no one follows signs
They just roll
Roll roll on
Call up the Captain bring back Mother Jones
Raise em up from the dirt get them rattled in their bones
Watch em hall down that network make them leave the sky alone
And then roll
Roll roll on
And that chain around your neck is like the one around your feet
Just another signpost pointing straight to ruin street
Where you'll roll
Roll on
Well I love you for your color babe I love your face
All the neon in the city can't hold a candle to your grace
But you move through me like our love is common place
You just roll
Roll roll on
Do you really call that living do you really think that's wise
You've been doing so much dying dying right before my eyes
And if it's truth that you want well I've got this great disguise
Yeah just roll
Roll roll on
It doesn't matter how much Nietze you have read
When a black gun clicks and there's a barrel at your head
Singing roll
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
So here's my tongue here's my body come on and take my soul away
I got 'em cheap in the market they weren't worth much anyway
And if you wanna fix em up maybe I'll buy em back someday
Till then I'll roll
Roll roll on
Till then I'll roll
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
Roll on
