The moon was full
|
And their hearts were empty
|
When I stopped to watch the river go down
|
Saw the gleaming eyes
|
On your blind two corners
|
Heard the Shuffle of the Buckled
|
As they come to lay their money down
|
|
Ooo not even with his money down
|
And he fades in the shadows
|
Of the walls of night in this town
|
He just fades in the shadows
|
Of the walls of night in this town
|
|
My heart was numb and my eyes stopped running
|
And the wind chilled my bones where I stopped
|
To watch that river go down
|
And the song on this street
|
Boasts no chest proud anthem
|
It's the shuffle of the buckled
|
As they come to lay their money down
|
|
Chorus
|
|
The moon was full
|
And their hearts were empty
|
When I stopped to watch the river go down
|
Ooo not even with his money down
|
