POWDERFINGER LYRICS - Ballad Of A Dead Man

"Ballad Of A Dead Man"



Run little rabbit, cant break the habbit for none

Shapes like a rocket and shoots like a pocket gun

Every mothers son has spent a lifetime on the run



One by one and two by two

Our hearts beat a rhythm true

Wave goodbye now baby blue

You're exploding like a star into the gloom



I thought I could shut you in

You said 'Babay let me out'

I thought that I could pick you up and roll you like a dice



There's hitchhikers thumbingon the verge of the lovers highway

But we just roll on by with the top down, the sun's out

I'm so glad when you came along you happened to be going my way

The wheels roll round and round



One by one and two by two

Our hearts beat a rhythm true

Wave goodbye now baby blue

You're exploding like a star in the room



I thought I could shut you in

You said "come on pull me out"

I thought that I could pick you up and roll you like a dice

When im close to you, I could feel it coming in, here they come

They're coming one by one coming two by two

They're coming one by one coming two by two



Yeah, if I ever let you down

If anything should come to bleed you dry or cut you out

Dont turn me away

Yeah I never meant to spin you round

If anybody comes to do you harm or pin you down

I'll take your place
