Just Words from Old Hand by Terry Lee Hale

JUST WORDS

YOU’RE JUST HAPPY MELANCHOLY
WAVE THE FLAG I WON’T FORGET
BUT REMEMBER DON’T JUST SAY IT,
WHERE YOU AIM IS WHAT YOU GET
I ALMOST THOUGHT CONGRATULATIONS
TO MAKE A HOME BESIDE THE DITCH
BUT IT’S LOST AND NOT JUST TRADED
IF YOU CUT THE LIMB AND YOU MISS THE ITCH

CHORUS:
JUST WORDS
IN THE NIGHT
MORE WORDS
HOLD THEM TIGHT
MORE WORDS
JUST WORDS

FILL THE SILENCE, EMPTY HOLLOW
WRITE A TESTIMONIAL
DUMB ATTENTION, MEEKLY FOLLOW
TAKE AWAY IS HOW IT GOES
CALL ME TEN BUT CALL ME STRONG
YOU’RE NOT THE FIRST BUT NOW YOU KNOW
IT’S NO GOOD IF YOU SPEND THAT DOLLAR
SILLY YOU TO SO WEAKLY BLOW

CHORUS:
THE WORDS
ALL AROUND
MORE WORDS
ON THE GROUND
MORE WORDS
JUST WORDS

DESPERATION, USELESS FOLLY
LEAVES HER MARK UPON YOUR FLESH
BUT STILL AHEAD IS HOW YOU CALL IT
SHINY NEW BUT SUCH A MESS
BLACK YOU PAINT IT, AIMLESS WANDER
STILL MORE DARKNESS ON IT GOES
BUT SUCK THAT TIT SHE’S NOW YOUR MOTHER
BUT TAKE THIS MIRROR SO YOU WILL KNOW

CHORUS:
THE WORDS
THESE ARE MINE
MORE WORDS
ALL THE TIME
MORE WORDS
