lyrics

All of the kings and all of the queens
Could never rule over me
With their castles and walls
And their tyrant laws
They could never make a fool out of me

But you put the chains and shackles
Onto my feet
It’s the little things know that I can’t
Seem to reach
And the days are loose change
Spilling out on the streets
Cause honey you’re hard to reach

The empires of old and their riches of gold
Could never buy what I need
For all of that wealth lies hidden on a shelf
Getting dirty and dusty

But you put the chains and shackles
Onto my feet
It’s the little things know that I can’t
Seem to reach
And the days are loose change
Spilling out on the streets
Cause honey you’re hard to reach

I’ve been swimming your tides in and out
But I’m drowning in the wild waves of your doubts
I’ve been swimming your tides in and out
But I’m drowning in the wild waves of your doubts
Wild waves of your doubts


All of the saints and all of the priests
Could never cure me
They’ll wave with their arms
And they’ll bless with their charms
But they can never set me free

You put the chains and shackles
Onto my feet
It’s the little things know that I can’t
Seem to reach
And the days are loose change
Spilling out on the streets
Cause honey you’re hard to reach

"So, we will leave Tom Waits to tell us about the saloons, whores and carnival folk. Let John Prine nail toy railroad tracks to his kitchen table at Christmas, sing about his Mexican home. Now we have Ky Burt to bring us to places where we might want to live – where there are wildflowers, rain, and we can take new journeys.
