the way i kill time at work....transcribing lyrics to songs that i can't find online.
Brian Fallon "The Blues, Mary"
Learned how to hammer in the burning August sun
Learned how to lie and cheat how to steal and just how to run
Fell asleep most nights with somebody else’s blood on my tongue, your tongue, you learned just how to run
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
You learn how to cry in them lonesome September nights
I learned to get by with the dirt and the dogs and the charm of the street.
I fell asleep most nights with your picture right behind my eyes,
Your eyes, the killer and the victim, all right, right at the same time.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
The caustic smile was bright like the ramparts on the Forth of July.
My baby swings like a boxer, sends her right hooks on to my chin.
She cries like a baby (cries like a baby) and she wears me just like a ring.
She cries like a baby (cries like a baby) and she wears me just like a ring.
I learn how to swagger.
I learn how to hold you while your body burned.
Learned how to compromise while this whirlwind hurricane turned.
We fell asleep most nights with each other’s blood on our tongues, my love, if you ever just had enough?
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
Learned how to hammer in the burning August sun
Learned how to lie and cheat how to steal and just how to run
Fell asleep most nights with somebody else’s blood on my tongue, your tongue, you learned just how to run
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
You learn how to cry in them lonesome September nights
I learned to get by with the dirt and the dogs and the charm of the street.
I fell asleep most nights with your picture right behind my eyes,
Your eyes, the killer and the victim, all right, right at the same time.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
The caustic smile was bright like the ramparts on the Forth of July.
My baby swings like a boxer, sends her right hooks on to my chin.
She cries like a baby (cries like a baby) and she wears me just like a ring.
She cries like a baby (cries like a baby) and she wears me just like a ring.
I learn how to swagger.
I learn how to hold you while your body burned.

We fell asleep most nights with each other’s blood on our tongues, my love, if you ever just had enough?
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
But it’s just the blues Mary, the blues.
Swirling around my head like your dreams in Dorothy shoes.
I’m somewhere over the rainbow for you.
