Won't you hold me through the shakes darlin'? Well, it's fine if you cut and run At first light of the crestin' sun But right now I'm feenin'
If you're still in town When my better days roll around We'll heat this ground and dance like two hearts bleedin'
This city is so loud and the hotel kicked me out Do you think that she is still proud lookin' down? The world got so confusin' I'm a tool for cheap amusement They all hate me from here to Tennessee
So hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me Hold me through the shakes, although it's more than you can take And when you wake, you'll still be my darlin' When you wake, I'm yours to take darlin'
Let me have my bloody knuckles All my nights and dark cold trouble When I was through, I was hopin' you might wait for me
They made me out to be Somethin' I don't understand How I am just a man, my darlin'
Now I'm lost in Denver With a postcard I could send ya But I don't know of any good it'd do
So I'll photograph the lights 'Cause they remind me of your eyes And pray for you until I untangle this blue
Hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me Hold me through the shakes, although it's more than you can take And when you wake you'll still be my darlin' When you wake, I'm yours to take darlin'
Hold me through the shakes, although it's more than I can take There ain't no choice for damaged boys like me Hold me through the shakes, although it's more than you can take And when you wake, you'll still be my darlin' When you wake, I'm yours to take darlin'
