Richard Thompson - I Ain't Going To Drag My Feet No More(Live) Lyrics
I've been gone so long, now ain't it a pityBending my back in this hell-hole cityTurning my ear from my friends and bettersUp to my neck in unread lettersAnd unwritten lawsWhere I come from feeling is a crimeI thought I could take you in my own good timeLike a jumped-up fool, now down I climbAnd I ain't going to drag my feet no moreI'm running to your side, gonna beat down the doorI ain't going to drag my feet no more, no moreWell I can't live without you but I've been tryingI've got a short-set fuse and two fists of ironI did everything a man might doTo stop myself from pining after youBut it don't seem to matter no morePenny's in my hand, now I'm going to spin itHeads you win, don't you think for one minuteThat I care for this bed with nobody in itAnd I ain't going to drag my feet no moreI'm running to your side, gonna beat down the doorI ain't going to drag my feet no more, no moreBiding my time is driving me senselessYou worked yourself right under my defensesYou got me in a grip that I can't shakeAll my feelings are about to breakAnd love never rains, it poursI worked my hands 'till they couldn't spell your nameI rolled and I roared 'till I couldn't see your faceI leaned on the jukebox 'till I couldn't hear your voicePut my head in the sand, but that won't do itI swore I was above you, but that won't do itAnd I tried and I tried, but that won't do itAnd I ain't going to drag my feet no moreI'm running to your side, gonna beat down the doorI ain't going to drag my feet no more, no moreI ain't going to drag my feet no moreI'm running to your side, gonna beat down the doorI ain't going to drag my feet no more, no more
