lyrics

Lookin’ for some trouble in this muddy little puddle of rhymes.
My words are in time. Tickling your ears while the boys keep it rolling along.
The way you move your body's got me searching for that sin in your eyes.
I wanna hear some lies. I’ve been waiting for you mama and you know I won't stay here long.

I was born to sing the blues but this swingin’ is a muse that I find.
I had to get me a ride. So tired of waiting while the years keep passin’ me by.
But out there on the streets there's a hustle I've been looking to find.
It's a one of a kind. Open your eyes and your ass will follow close behind.

There ain't a day in this life that ain't worth livin’.
Up here in this small town dreaming of the city lights.
The only thing I've found that seems to keep me hangin’ around.
Is the sentimental sounds of this old town.

Lookin’ down the barrel of this bloody little bottle of rye.
I am my own demise. Riddlin’ the fears while my dreams they are ocean size.
All the nightmares I've seen, pickin’ up steam, make me wanna hustle, make me wanna raise a scheme.
And the feelings I shake, before I break, make me wanna hustle, make me wanna raise the stakes.

Well I'm gonna jump that train. Hear the tracks whistlin’ on the line?
I can't repeat what I’ll find. Ain't no second look cause I done bit the bait off the hook.
But out there on the streets there's a hustle I've been looking to find.
It's a one of a kind. Open your eyes and your ass will follow close behind.
