The Graveltones - Dying on Your Feet lyrics

Talkin' like old friends We're gonna get along No need to pretend Just tell it like you want it told Hanging on loose ends Everybody's got a cross to bare You wanna bleed for your sins Don't be living on a nightly prayer Don't bother begging no more don't want your bad luck to spill on me I'm counting two times swinging at the mercy of man and you're raining down a spell on me I got the right solution Put a man's mind at ease Better dying on your feet Than living on your knees Talkin' like old friends Everybody's got a different plan You wanna owe what you spend? Then don't go betting on another's hand Honey stand on your tongue And tell me what you need to know I'll put a saddle on the wind To get to where we need to go Well you've been picking at straws and telling everybody what you think I'm counting three times shaking but it could be more because you're raining down a spell on me I got the right solution To put a man's mind at ease Better dying on your feet Than living on your knees Talkin' like old friends We're gonna get along No need to pretend Just tell it like you want it told
