lyrics

Give me the sound of that old jackhammer, I got something to do
I’m gonna wreck all night I’m gonna work all day
Til' the hole in this mountain is through
Give me the sound of that old piano, honky tonking and blue
I’m gonna play all night and sleep all day and wake on up to get a message on through.

Forty four gallons in a rusty drum sounds like trouble
But it’s got to be done
There’s an old grey cobweb hangin’ in the morning sky
And if it won’t move the grass won’t grow
And the songs won’t fall to the earth below
How it got up there…I don’t know why.

I’ve got a thousand notes that just don’t care
Where they land they’re gonna fill up the air
Love to the loveless in pain and solitude
Prise the locks on the desperate doors
Break down the silence behind the walls
No matter how high
I’m comin’ on through
