The Cold Stares - Level Floor Blues Lyrics

The Cold Stares Lyrics

"Level Floor Blues"

Take my chances
And I take my pay
Take me a ride on a westbound train
'Cause I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more

When I saw my rider, she was
She was level with the floor

And I ain't no killer, no
And I ain't no thief
But I got this feeling
They're gonna bury me
So you know I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more

When I saw my rider, she was
She was level with the floor

You know her daddy got money
And her, her momma too
They said, "Son, we don't want to see her hanging 'round the likes of you"
And that's why I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more

When I saw my rider, she was
She was level with the floor

You know I'll miss you, baby
I'll miss seeing you around
Wish I could be there when they laid you in the ground
But I got to leave you, baby
No, I ain't coming 'round no more

When I saw my good girl, you know
She was level with the floor

So, take my chances
And take my pay
Take me a ride on a westbound train
'Cause I'm leaving
No, I ain't coming 'round no more

When I saw my rider, she was
Level with the floor
