lyrics

Time laid me down by the riverside
But my ghost swept up and my vengeance cried
Gotta break these bones, gotta skin my pride
If you wanna get through to the other side
If you wanna get through to the other side

Well my heart is beat with time to kill
My body aches from loss of will
I’m deep in the bowers of the darkest grove
Deadly Nightshade up from the floor has grown
Deadly Nightshade up from the floor has grown

Time laid me down on the railroad tracks
Said friend I don’t think you’re ever coming back
Better say your prayers, better make it right
If you wanna get through to the other side
If you wanna get through to the other side

God led me down the old dirt road
Never thought my friend would be so low
Lured me down to the bitches den
Said friend you’re never gonna see my face again
Friend you’re never gonna see my face again

Time laid me down by the riverside
But my ghost swept up and my vengeance cried
Gotta break these bones, gotta skin my pride
If you wanna get through to the other side
If you wanna get through to the other side

My hands are aching and my feet are sore
My bodies lazy and my fibers torn
Got a job to do, gonna get it done
On bended knees to till the day is done

Time laid me down by the riverside
But my ghost swept up and my vengeance cried
Gotta break these bones, gotta skin my pride
If you wanna get through to the other side
If you wanna get through to the other side

With my skull and bones to my catacombs
Whatever drives me down that rabbit hole
Got my head in my hands and my eyes in my mouth
By the end of the day I’ll be falling down

God led me down the old dirt road
Never thought my friend would be so low
Lured me down to the bitches den
Said friend you’re never gonna see my face again
Friend you’re never gonna see my face again

Balling that jack won’t carry the load
But now your’e stuck in the mud and it’s up to your throat
Paved that road but you bitched and moaned
From the stars in your eyes to the end of the rope
Life ain’t paying no heed, no scorn
if it don’t make you happy like it did before
Price is high in the bitches den,
what’s it gonna be when the party ends

Muddy Ruckus Portland, Maine

Muddy Ruckus is a “darkly inventive" rock duo according to the New York Music Daily. Guitarist Ryan Flaherty and drummer Erika Stahl of Portland, Maine play a grungy style of railroad indie punk blues. This stripped-down power-duo blends rootsy guitar and edgy percussion on a suitcase drum kit, and is known for a full rock band sound. Check out their latest album Vacationland w/ 14 red-hot tracks! ... more
