Something Good in Me

Night it seeps in through the cracks
Of this highway byway wooden shack
No one’s made this home for years
These walls have dried a 1000 tears

We stopped in here just me n her
Running from the debt and failure

Well I lie here almost gratefully
This dirt floor is my sanctuary
My lady’s gonna stay with me
Does she see somethin’ I don’t see?
Does she see somethin’ good in me?

Was flying high not long ago
A peacock in a field I’d sown
But the gambler it took hold of me
The season’s change I didn’t see

Her face went thin like a witch’s broom
As I told the truth ‘bout wrack and ruin

Well I lie I here almost gratefully . . .

She’s combing dust right outta her hair
Sayin’ our field’s now embers n sparks
But she knows I meant the best for us
Cause me I bear a generous heart
