Heavy On Me

(album: Tornillo - 2022)

I know that ya been worried bout my drinking, but
I been feeling alright
It's just a couple of little ol' stitches
And my heads starting to feel just fine
Ain't nobody got time just to sit around
And worry about poor ol' me
I gotta build this house got babies on the way, got mouths to feed
Go on and give it to me

Go on ahead & put the heavy on me
Go on ahead & put the heavy on

I asked ya once, if I can bear all the weight
Put the heavy on my shoulders & see
I made a promise, I'm her mountain of stone
Won't be alone as long I can breath
You like to work in mysterious ways
Served me up a slice of God
I like a challenge so I better start owning up to what ya got in store for me
Go on and give it to me

Go on ahead & put the heavy on me
Go on ahead & put the heavy on

Bloodline, it's in your last name
Daddy raised me the same way
That I'll do you one day
I can handle a little pressure on me
Take the load off the feeble ones
And pass it my way
I got bills, got mouths to feed
Let's pack on and we'll see Lord
If you're betting on me

So go on ahead & put the heavy on me
Go on ahead & put the heavy on me
Go on ahead & put the heavy on me
Go on ahead & put the heavy on me
Go on ahead & put the heavy on
