I can't find a soul who'll take on this mess
So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what
So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you
Texas she's nice, but Georgia's oh so sweet
Runnin' around in the shoes of a clown
Skin it back, tell it to you
I'm beggin' please darlin' put my mind at rest
You're a dream and that's all that I ask for
A thief of love, my business is the street
Please, please darlin' put my mind at rest
Skin it back, tell it to you
Skin it back
I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move
Steal away with me darlin', your lovin' just can't be beat
Somethin' real, somethin' to feel
And that desperate, no count, desperado
I be shakin' 'em down in old Colorado
So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what
I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move
You're a dream and that's all that I ask for
So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you
Skin it back, tell it to you
It's those rock and roll hours, early graves without flowers
'Round city to city, town to town
