Hard Wired

SHAKEY GRAVES · And The War Came 2014 · Track 05 of 11

Well water was wine back on blue mountain time Where I watched your loving expire While I lay close to you As the laces on the shoe And that's when I knew We were hard-wired

Well you bumbled like bees And I'm boiled like the seas While you led where no one would follow So I head in the mud Of my Catholic blood And let that minute hand face stars tomorrow

Well you are as you came Mostly blessin' cocaine Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was Sick with mercy and love Well, I'm sorry enough I was hard-wired

So sit by the still Oh, drink up your fill Yeah, tell all of them people your problem

Yeah, well those friends were so true When you were twenty-two But now you have nothing in common

But they are as they came Mostly blessin' cocaine Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was Sick with mercy and love Well the truth always was We were hard-wired

So go brace for good times Oh, do what feels right And send me the bill when you tire

'Cause I am as I came And I'll still be the same I got nothing to play Mhm, I was hard-wired

Yeah, 'cause I am as I was And I stay here because The truth always was We were hard-wired
