lyrics

three in the morning, dropped on my head
the last train won't run and the radio's dead
come look out the window on a city of stone
there's a son of a bitch with his boots on the ditch
walking home on his own

out making time, out spoiling angels
sneaking back into hell early on Sunday
i left a prayer on her pillow and wine on her breath
now if if wasn't for headlights, i'd be freezing to death

when you're starving and lonesome it's a wonder to find
a willing companion of the heavenly kind
it's a busted arrangement, even sunrise is cold
nothing left i can lose but a year of the blues
and the last of my soul

(out making time...)

don't ask for more chances, enough is enough
losing won't break you, not as badly as love
feeling easy and free now, almost forgiven
a little like the devil on a whole new level
hitching home out of heaven

(out making time...)

Polecat Rodeo recommends:

Through the Deep, Dark Valley
by The Oh Hellos

There are lots of talented, exuberant bands out there, but very few with the power to produce pure joy with their music. For example, The Oh Hellos. Don't miss this, that's all. Polecat Rodeo
go to album
Slim Century
by The Canoes

The Canoes are back and better than ever with their wry songs of Midwestern adolescent woe. Sharper, clearer, more bitterly hilarious than Roger, and that's saying a lot. Polecat Rodeo
