Walkabouts Cold Eye Lyrics

Cold Eye Lyrics

Painted so many towns
Painted so many towns
Painted them up and down
Painted them up and down
Down to the broken ground
Down to the broken ground
Pointed the last one, for now
Pointed the last one, for now


Soon I will stow away
Soon I will stow away
Into the cool nightshade
Into the cool nightshade
Watching fireworks fly
Watching fireworks fly
In the reservation sky
In the reservation sky


Found only hell to pay
Found only hell to pay
Draggin’ these bones all day
Draggin’ these bones all day
Sun-up to cocktail time
Sun-up to cocktail time
Dragged ’em till I was blind
Dragged ’em till I was blind


The field full of also-rans
The field full of also-rans
Stealin’ my used up plans
Stealin’ my used up plans
All of my friends were there
All of my friends were there
They couldn’t believe I cared
They couldn’t believe I cared


When I put my cold eye to it x2
When I put my cold eye to it x2
And I couldn’t say no
And I couldn’t say no


Luck is the thing I make
Luck is the thing I make
Luck is the thing you break
Luck is the thing you break
After it all went wrong
After it all went wrong
Before I was good as gone
Before I was good as gone


Deep in the beggin’ bowl
Deep in the beggin’ bowl
I found some scraps to take
I found some scraps to take
Drank from your poison jar
Drank from your poison jar
Found I was wide awake
Found I was wide awake


When i, put my cold eye to it x2
When i, put my cold eye to it x2
And I never said no, no i
And I never said no, no i
Never said no
Never said no


When i, put my cold eye to it x2
When i, put my cold eye to it x2
Yes, I put my cold eye to it
Yes, I put my cold eye to it
And I never said no, no i
And I never said no, no i
Never said no
Never said no
