Up To Here

well its 7:00 AM and she woke by the radio
yeah she rolled on over said, "where did my man go?"
she's been a gunslinger's wife all her life
now she fights when she's able
for the sake of the kids when the knife's at their necks in the cradle
she screams

I'll believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
I will believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight

well she's got all the kids and she's got all their uses
but she loves them the same for neglect and abuses
she got a warm spot where they fought
and they made up last evening
he said, "Don't read too much into the fact
that I'm leaving"
she screams

I'll believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
I will believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
I will believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
I will believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight

how do I explain this
I mean how do I put it into words
it's one thing or another
but it's neither this or that
actually it's a collection of things
she said, " that's it, that's it, get out"

well her mother said, "Kill him slow at your leisure"
ah but desperate times call for desperate measures
so she went to the closet and she pulled the old gun down
"I'll put a bullet through his heart if he ain't home by sundown"
Yeah 5:55 he comes walking in the front door smiling
he said, "Don't read too much into what I ain't denying"
she screams

I'll believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
I will believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
I will believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
I will believe in you or I'll be leaving you tonight
Well I believe in you

orn a queen up on her side, and she felt it too.
there's a lot you can see when there's nothing to do
she got down on her knees and she dug herself out
slipping to the east side and prancing about.

learn a language baby, it's that kind of place
low card is hunger and high card is taste
and trouble is small change when daddy's around
you know that she learned a lesson when she happened down

she didn't know-the barrel was loaded
she didn't know-the barrel was loaded
she didn't know-the barrel was loaded
she didn't know

one eye on the table, one eye on the floor
she got beat for her pride with her back to the door
she be digging the spotlight and called it her own
but you know it's over when everyone's gone

stealing seconds together, the day is the night
you can fly your own colors as long as they're right
the trigger invites you and so do the boys
but if there ain't no one listening there ain't no noise

Well I think that there's a problem here
her voice just don't sound right
left a message on the answering machine
said, "I'm back in town tonight"
I feel I've stepped out of the wilderness
all squint-eyed and confused
but even babies raised by wolves
they know exactly when they've been used

see when it starts to fall apart
it really falls apart
like boots or hearts, oh when they start
they really fall apart

fingers and toes, fingers and toes
forty things we share
forty-one if you include
the fact that we don't care
now you've blocked off most of main street
for your faith parade
everyone in town now, they probably all agree
I'm lying in the bed I made

now you won't even let me talk to you
we got some air to clear
we'd probably only agree on one thing anyway
that's what the hell is happening here?
finger and toes, fingers and toes
forty things we share
forty-one if you include
the fact that we don't care

they shot a movie once, in my hometown
everybody was in it, from miles around
out at the speedway, some kind of Elvis thing
well I ain't no movie star
but I can get behind anything
yeah I can get behind anything

get it out, get it all out
yeah stretch that thing
make it last, make it last
at least until the supper bell rings
well the taxi driver likes his rhythm
never likes the stops
throes of passion, throes of passion
when something just threw him off

sometimes the faster it gets
the less you need to know
but you gotta remember
the smarter it gets
the further its gonna go
when you blow at high dough
when you blow at high dough

baby I feel fine
I'm pretty sure it's genuine
it makes no sense, no it makes no sense
but I'll take it free anytime
whoever fits her usually gets her
it was the strangest thing how she moved so fast, moved so fast
into that wedding ring

out at the speedway, same Elvis thing
well I can't catch her, but I can get behind anything
yea I can get behind anything
well I can get behind anything
