lyrics

i rolled into town
like a junkyard dog
at dawn

crossed the tracks and i doubled back
and stumbled along
until i sat
on the swing-set in your backyard
drinking mean and hard

i strained the flies from last night’s wine
and i stood and i
i watched the sky

trembling in the grass
off-my ass
well i’ll die slow
but i’ll live fast

chorus
and i don’t give a damn about a greenback dollar
spend it as fast as i can
no i don’t give a damn about a greenback dollar
spend it as fast as i can

well i’m staring up at your dark windows
while i’m whittling on a stick
thinking sleeping kids
don’t give a

it’s easy to get caught between the sickle and the crop
split in two by haves and have-nots
landlocked, lockjaw, no jackpot

but i don’t dream no white picket dreams
i’m an outlaw yeah
ah-oooh i’m an outlaw yeah

chorus

ah-oooh i’m an outlaw yeah
ah-oooh i’m an outlaw yeah

I LIE HERE BURIED WITH MY RINGS AND MY DRESSES
by Backxwash

supported by 4 fans who also own “Greenback Dollar Revisited”

Each line on this album is delivered with malice, and each word hits like a mace to the skull. Backxwash uses raw aggression to vent frustration and anguish in a way that evokes an anger with the world rather than a pity for her. Luke Warmwater
