Catching Up

(album: Earthbound Blues - 2011)

Now trouble comes and goes
Ain't nothing new I suppose
Weight of the world, win and lose
And all that defeat has a way of catching up to you

You know The Bass left me sore
But it's that same pass I gotta be thankful for
You know I can't change what's always gonna be
I try to keep moving but it always catches up to me

No you can't put a man at ease after you take him from his home
I got a hard road up ahead now, and a long way left to go
And I keep on looking back over my shoulder
Looks like the world's getting colder

And now I'm haunted by the hope, days I'll never know
I hear the church bells ring, the choir sing, waking up the ghost
And I keep on looking back over my shoulder
See the devil get closer

And trouble, time has tell
Look for the good in the stories, time will tell
And when they follow the bad and the blue
Just keep on moving, don't let 'em catch up to you (no, no, no)
