Little Feat Skin It Back Lyrics

Skin It Back Lyrics

Paul Barrere 



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 (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
