Mike Gunther - Eight Bridges On The Allegheny lyrics

When you're lost in Pennsylvania and the bums don't seem to care Please don't worry I won't answer With a cauterizing stare If your family understands you but you can't believe a beat Take the war out of the nightime like a needle to the street There's an achor at the harbor A latch upon the rail To strap yourself you sons of abraham to rocks impale Turn to try to loses your thumb don't go that high ???? jam they drive not justify Felicity she's going back home The other sister reigns It was amazing man, the way she looked before she went insane They asked about you often but their faces all had changed and once you left they vowed never again to speak your name Well they said you were in Cleveland or on Nebraska's plain With a box of kitchen matches Your dreams out in the rain Oh if you ever come back home boy I got your ashtray there Oh you always knew the cues to never really care They bathed your heart in turpentine Strung it on a wall Put it in your pocket Can't you hear the call Just to beat your swords to flashes Your gun in to your friend Knock three down, take one off and play the game again Well the path of glory's molten It's changed and it's gone bad The angels all step forward There is white and in on clad Pray to them that moment a victim to a thief Oh your head your heart your eyes laid out submissive sweet relief Your things were lost and broken in corners and unused Missing letters and photographs strung out an abused Your memory ain't faded it's just changed to fit my plans When I'm riding down the highway and I stop to help a man
