Why'd you go out east my boy?Why'd you go out there?Did your papa say that the time of dayIs only secondary to the price that you pay to know?Oh noAnd why'd you leave my back my boy?I thought you was with me with me 'til the endWhy'd you leave my back my boy?I thought that you was whisky and I was ginLaid out on some bar togetherDusty eyed but getting better as each calendar goesIn the trash with the atlas and the mapsOf all the circles we drove'Cause there ain't no one keeping time no moreBut these assholes knocking on my doorIs that the cops or the devil or the goddamn LordWho knows?I saw the federation flagDoubled over like a dancer on her sideAnd when I called I called to tell youThat your favorite of the athletes had diedHe offed his family and left nothingBut an orchid on the nightstand aliveStill you didn't pick me up but what the fuckLetras de cancionesI figured why not try'Cause there ain't a reason to be good my boyThough I've seen others try in the pastThere ain't a reason to be good my boyThough I have seen others they've died for lessHorizontal on the prairieStill as the snow and buried by the darkWhile there's vampires on that altarWith their teeth inside the neck of my guitarBut there just ain't no one keeping time no moreSo I got in my car and I droveTo the White House in my church clothesJust to see if you were sleeping on the lawn But all I found was freedom in a windowBlinking my name in neon (please keep it on)I fell asleep myself you knowI was dreaming of the Tri-State and beyondI had Lincoln looking over me saying"Fuck it man I guess the golden days are gone"'Cause there ain't no one keeping time no oneThere ain't no one keeping timeThe minister is knee-deep in wineAnd who are you and I to go and argue with the LordAfter eighteen years of sleeping on his floor?There ain't no one keeping timeAin't nobody keeping mineAin't no one keeping time no more From Letras Mania
