Hangin' Your Life On The Wall

(albüm: Dublin Blues - 1995)

I used to be Juanita's old boyfriend
We sure gave 'em some stories to tell
Now I can't even find her picture
I guess I'm finally through fooling myself

I used to be an ex-bullrider
Living on the edge of life itself
Now I can't even find my buckle
Looks like I'm finally through fooling myself

[Chorus]

Hang on just as long as you can
Get up whenever you fall
Shake it off, Boys, and go 'round again
Don't be hanging your life on the wall

I used to be forever chasing firetrucks
I sure could raise me some hell
I don't know why I like to do that kinda stuff
I guess I wasn't through fooling myself

I used to have a smoking little fastball
I sure could show 'em some stuff
Now I can't even make it on the
church team anymore
I guess I'm finally through fooling myself

[Chorus Twice]

Shake it off, Boys, and go 'round again
Don't be hanging your life on the wall
