|
Looking for some shelter |
|
Looking for some peace |
|
The fire in the furnace |
|
Is burning like the beast |
|
My pants have all been pressed |
|
And all my collars neatly creased |
|
My ride bumming thumb is up |
|
'cause now the hounds have been released |
|
Cloud around my head |
|
Leaves beneath my feet |
|
Fever in my fingertips |
|
And grease between my teeth |
|
Shaking when I wake up |
|
Keep a'heaving just to breathe |
|
Chubby cherub up above me |
|
Heathen fiend asleep beneath |
|
I don't know |
|
Where I go |
|
Only where I've been |
|
Shake that bush again (x4) |
|
Leaving in the evening |
|
Good girl don't you greive |
|
But babe while I'm away |
|
You keep your secrets safe for me |
|
Or do you need the proof |
|
Or momma do you just believe |
|
Or do you shake the hand of man |
|
With evil up his sleeve? |
|
Can you understand |
|
Stand behind your man |
|
Might not always do right |
|
But he'll do just what he can |
|
Can't tell where he'll wind up |
|
When he come around the bend |
|
Oh but you bet when he get there |
|
Gonna shake that bush again |
|
I don't know |
|
Where I go |
|
Only where I've been |
|
Shake that bush again (x4) |
|
Shake it baby |
|
Man is just a man |
|
He can leave it he can take it |
|
But baby shake that tail |
|
Just like a rattlesnake can shake it |
|
Ignominious decision |
|
But somebody gotta make it |
|
Lord I know I made a promise |
|
But I'm gonna have to break it |
|
Looking for some shelter |
|
Looking for some peace |
|
The fire in the furnace |
|
Been burning like the beast |
|
I guess I'm heading west |
|
When the weary leave the east |
|
There's a new broom near my tombstone |
|
Sweep it clean for the deceased |
|
I don't know |
|
Where I go |
|
Only where I've been |
|
Shake that bush again (x8) |
