Keep It Together

(album: Down In Heaven - 2016)

Duck down the alley after midnight
Counting your money with your headlights out
Look past the screen door, you can see her keeping
Keeping the party together

She says, "I'm your painkiller on the corner
I'll be the one that's gonna turn you around
And besides, twenty-something amounts to nothing
When you're dead in the ground"

She's here to set you free
She's got that something that could put you at ease
And you could end up like a dog in the street
But she'll still be here staying with it

Get your head up, get it out of your hands
Feeling better was just a part of your plan
Just pay up a couple when you come back again, boy
So she can keep it together

Keep it together, baby
Keep it together
Keep it together, we'll be dancing all night, yeah
Keep it together, baby
Keep it together
Keep it together, we'll be dancing all night
