Gratitude Walks Lyrics - American Music Club

Why don't you be good for something 

And draw down the shade? 

On a sign that sat up all night shivering 

On a sign that sat up all night afraid 

Well now chains on the oasis that 

Leads a man to drink 

Drunk on the kind of applause 

That gets louder the lower you sink 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks on sixth street 

Pull it from the air 

And they throw it in the blue 

And you're spinning under their wheels 

Trapped in your room 

You're jumpy, you don't want to see 

You don't want to see them have their fun 

Slap her face if she should laugh 

Push him down if he should try and run 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks on sixth street 

Take a number for your big woman 

They sold the rules of dream land in cotton, wool, and cement 

Well it's never what you want 

It's just the kind of thing that always happens here 

Yeah, you watch the good old days pass you by 

Leaving your cupboards bare 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks on sixth street 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks 

Gratitude walks on sixth street
