Skin It Back

Well I'm waitin' for something to take place Something to take me away from this race 'Round city to city, town to town Runnin' around in the shoes of a clown And that desperate, no count, desperado A thief of love, my business is the street I be shakin' 'em down in old Colorado Texas she's nice, but Georgia's oh so sweet Steal away with me darlin', your lovin' just can't be beat So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move You're a dream and that's all that I ask for So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you Skin it back Somethin' real, somethin' to feel I can't find a soul who'll take on this mess It's those rock and roll hours, early graves without flowers Please, please darlin' put my mind at rest I'm beggin' please darlin' put my mind at rest So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move You're a dream and that's all that I ask for So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you Skin it back, tell it to you Skin it back, tell it to you Skin it back, tell it to you Skin it back, tell it to you
