When The Work Was New

--  There She Blows -- 

When theWork was New --

It was Easyto do --

Though weworked 10 Times Harder than we do now --

It did notseem So Hard Somehow --

It did not seem So Hard Somehow.

 

When I first Loved you --

Baby sometimes I Still Do --

Only a Miracle would make me Break My Vow --

It would Not take So Much now --

NO -- It Would Not Take SO Much now.

They ought to take me Out and Shoot me --
Do me a favor and and Do me --

Put me outof my Misery Like a Broken Horse --

I don’t minddying – I’m Lying, of course.

Now when the Axe Comes Down --

You stand up and look around --

And where the buildings stood, there's Only Empty Air --

And where Your True Love Laughed

Now there's No One there--

And where your Old Man was--

Now there's No One there.

They ought to Shoot me --
Do me a favor and and Do me --

Put me outof my Misery Like a Broken Horse --

I don’t minddying – I’m Lying, of course.

I drink toomuch, I drink too fast

Whether a bottle to a glass

FromChateauneuf-du-Pape to Thunderbird --

I Prefer MySenses Blurred --

I Prefer My Senses Blurred -- 

I Prefer My Senses Blurred.
