Easy There, Steady Now Lyrics - Live From Austin, Tx - Richard Thompson

Jackknife with a precious load 

Spills it's guts all over the road 

Excuse me, I had to smile 

Lost my grip too for a while 

Easy there, steady now 

Easy there, steady now 

She didn't have the decency 

To sweep away what's left of me 

I don't have the presence of mind 

To walk along in a straight line 

Easy there, steady now 

CHORUS 

I call your name 

I call it loud 

I see your face 

In every crowd 

Nosebleed down the bathroom wall 

Leaves a pool down in the stall 

I wonder where you are tonight 

Red dress, skin so white 

Easy there, steady now 

3 AM an empty town 

Doctor Martens echo down 

Old man Heartbreak follows you 

Corruption's shadow swallows you 

Easy there, steady now 

CHORUS 

Jackknife with a precious load 

Spills it's guts all over the road 

Excuse me, I had to smile 

Lost my grip too for awhile 

Easy there, steady now
