Intro: / / / / /
[Verse:]
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 catnip into the weed,
Nobody was the wiser but they could have been higher and it meant more money for me
[Chorus:]
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
The years are going by like days
Days, the years are going by like days
[Verse:]
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
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
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
[Solo:] / / / / /
[Verse:]
I was washing dishes, stealing kisses, making our deals on the side
She said are you ready honey, cause we got gas money and we re going on a long 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
[Chorus:]
Here s to never getting caught, doctor it s only a graze
Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days
Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days
The years are going by like days
Days, the years are going by like days
