lyrics

jailbird

i got to leave
this is not my home
but its sure been good
not being alone
please don't shed not tears for my heart of stone
when the the morning birds sing
i will be gone
oh oh

my mistress is the sunrise, but i'm married to a ghost
i only see in the songs i love most
she's cast a vicious spell on me i never can undo
so i may take you by the hand but i'll never be true

going back to new orleans
where the ghosts run free
gonna sit by the river
let my soul bleed
when the pen hits the paper
that needle hits the groove
and the speakers come alive
medicate and soothe
that's when i see my love
when she comes close to me
and there's nothing above
that i need
oh oh

chorus
