Skin It Back Lyrics

-- Paul Barrere

Well I'm waitin' for something to take place 
Something to take me away from this race 
'Round city to city, town to town 
Runnin' around in the shoes of a clown 
And that desperate, no count, desperado 
A thief of love, my business is the street 
I be shakin' 'em down 
In old Colorado 
Texas she's nice, but Georgia's oh so sweet 
Steal away with me darlin' your lovin' just can't be beat 
So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' but so what 
I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move 
You're a dream, and that's all that I ask for 
So well now, I'm wonderin' just how I'm gonna tell it to you 
Skin it back (skin it back) 

Somethin' real, somethin' to feel 
I can't find a soul who'll take on this mess 
It's those rock and roll hours, early graves without flowers 
Please darlin' put my mind at rest 
I'm beggin' whoa darlin' put my mind at rest 
So it seems that the world keeps on turnin' well so what 
I don't doubt it, it just keeps on the move 
You're a dream, and that's all that I ask for 
So well now, I'm wonderin' just a-how I'm gonna tell it to you 
Skin it back tell it to you 
Skin it back tell it to you 
Skin it back tell it to you
