Rusty Hearse

Rusty Hearse (from the album Catch the Squirrel)

My hearse is gettin’ rusty… I need a few bucks
My hearse is gettin’ rusty… I’m runnin’ out of luck
Expensive tolls in Jersey, no end in sight. My hearse is gettin’ rusty…

Looks like I’m running into nothin’ but red lights
My hearse is gettin’ rusty, some say it’s a sign
I gotta do some busking, but the trains not on time
My tank is on empty, no pumps in sight
The sirens are calling, keep me company at night… keep me company at night.

Got my suit in a pawn shop, had to hock my guitar
My hearse is gettin’ rusty… My daisies are wilting in broken jars

Down the bowlin’ alley, tied to the pins
Blindman’s at the ball, knock me down with my sins
Not a preacher or a wise man, could ever save me now
No ‘bituary, this king has no crown… this king has no crown

My hearse is gettin’ rusty, I need a few bucks
My hearse is gettin’ rusty, I’m runnin’ out of luck
Expensive tolls in Jersey, no end in sight
The sirens are calling, keep me company at night
Looks like I’m running into nothin’ but red lights (rpt)
