I'll Never Learn
I took a walk across the tracks today
The scars have healed it’s a new dawn a new day
And I may be cursed for life
But I wont go down without a fight
Now once again Im caught in the undertow
Hit the bawdyhouse for the same old Cuban ho
But she make me feel like Im comin home
And she make me feel like Im all alone
Ooh whee Ill never learn
Ooh whee Ill never learn
Ive been kicked when Im down time after time
Ive been kicked out of town and went on the lam
Now the paths getting narrow winds movin in
It rattles the bolts on my wagon of sin
Ooh whee Ill never learn
Ooh whee Ill never learn
I appreciate the warnings and concern
But ooh whee Ill never learn
Id like to leave the apple on the tree
And find some work for these idle hands to do
Now God willin and the Creek don’t rise
Ill make it out and Ill make it through
I bought into a game by the harbour bay
Where the city moves in a neon shadow play
But its a highly strung and a tangled web I weave
With blood on my shirt and aces up my sleeve.
