Artist: Preacher Boy Album: Demanding To Be Next (2004) Title: Rock Skipper
Lyrics Rock Skipperi've seen the dawn and i've seen the dusk
i've seen the rose and i've seen the rust
and all my life i never had much
but a smooth stone in my pocket
a bruise is a bruise and a break is a break
to an ol' rock skipper from the great lakes
it ain't for me to worry why i never got the breaks
i'm just an old rock skipper from the great lakes
i crossed the sea and i crossed the sand
i crossed the devil and i crossed his hand
with a funeral bell and a wedding band
and a smooth stone in my pocket
a bruise is a bruise and a break is a break
to an ol' rock skipper from the great lakes
it ain't for me to worry why i never got the breaks
i'm just an old rock skipper from the great lakes
i saw the hands of tickin' time
chippin' pieces from my spine
i heard the hush and i hid behind
the smooth stone in my pocket
a bruise is a bruise and a break is a break
to an ol' rock skipper from the great lakes
it ain't for me to worry why i never got the breaks
i'm just an old rock skipper from the great lakes
i've seen the rake and i've seen it sweep
away the tears that i tried to weep
but through it all i tried to keep
a smooth stone in my pocket
a bruise is a bruise and a break is a break
to an ol' rock skipper from the great lakes
it ain't for me to worry why i never got the breaks
i'm just an old rock skipper from the great lakes |
