On Your Feet (26178)

Just shut your mouth and keep your head low
if you don't say a word they won't bother you
I think a lot from time to time
I can still see that lonely walk down the line
and if you asked what I mean
well come and see

a begger once asked me to make good
on all the things I said that I would
he said "I've seen you at night lately
carving question marks in your knees
but if it's all for the sake of disease
then let me bleed

and I for know myself that it's true
a life in the gutter beats a life in the cell
but I still drink more when it rains
I've gotten a little wiser but I doubt that you could tell

and if I could crawl, you bet I'd crawl
and if I could leave, you bet I'd leave
but a life spent staring at the sun can't see the ground

and I for know myself that it's true
a life in the gutter beats a life in the cell
but I still drink more when it rains
I've gotten a little wiser but I doubt that you could tell

and if I could crawl, you bet I'd crawl
and if I could leave, you bet I'd leave
and if I could cry, you bet I'd cry
and if I could die, you bet I'd die
but a life spent staring at the sun can't see the ground
