Spinning Like A Top Lyrics - I'm A Stranger Here - The Devil Makes Three

When I was a rover, met a four leaf clover 

She was irish as the day was long 

I thought she'd give it to me maybe 

Now she's married with a baby 

I've been dodging bullets all along 

Man, we would creep but never lost no sleep 

I would cut cat nip into the weed 

Nobody was the wiser but they could have been 

Higher and it meant more money for me 

Here's to not getting caught, doctor it's only a graze 

Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days 

School bus, I got on it, I was nearly catatonic 

I couldn't speak a goddamn word homeroom class 

Forge a hall pass and we would get higher than the birds 

My foolish nature, the chase for the paper, I would deal in the broad daylight 

18 years old, head full of psilocybin and howling at the moon all night 

Here's to not getting caught, doctor it's only a graze 

Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days 

Small town shadows, clean out of sight 

Nothing to fear but the coming of that morning light 

Ducking and dodging and diving for that rent 

If it couldn't be broken, it could be bent 

Washing dishes, stealing kisses, making our deals on the side 

She said are you ready honey, we got gas money, going on a real long ride 

Lying like a rug, prescription drugs, old guitars, new girlfriends 

Everybody shunned me, I just thought that it was funny and I'd do it all over again 

Here's to not getting caught, doctor it's only a graze 

Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days
