Buckdance Lyrics - Better Days - Shawn Mullins

What I'd give to be you for an hour or two 

Oh tell me a story of fortune and glory things i 

Never knew for I am the hungry and I am the 

Poor I've got one foot outside where the 

World is alive and the other foot nailed to 

The floor but it's always the one with the 

Terrible past who surprises me most 

Who puts himself last - five nights in hell and 

A forty day fast I remember her well tho 

I don't know her name her touch was a 

River so cold made me shiver and shake with 

Disdain and I'll never know why you chose me to 

Haunt but I'll say what I can hoping you'll under- 

Stand that it's not you I want.
