[00:00.00]The Hustler - Eric Andersen
[00:05.20]You can try and run me down
[00:07.46]But you can't drive me on the ground
[00:09.54]When you're not there I'll be around
[00:11.99]Haunt you I won't make a sound
[00:14.15]Track you I don't need a hound
[00:16.24]You think your lost I got you found
[00:18.29]You're surrounded though you think that they can't see
[00:22.68]Your castle walls they all will fall
[00:24.83]You'll be surprised that all in all
[00:26.81]Nobody really cares at all
[00:29.02]You won't believe the biggest go  like
[00:31.23]I can bite your heels when you crawl
[00:33.40]The pain will come from those so small
[00:35.54]Go cry wolf or better you should scream
[00:39.60]Though you're not on top you think your first
[00:41.89]Some surgeon scalpel steal the nurse
[00:43.90]Who can let the others feel the hurt
[00:46.26]When you're the driver of the hearse
[00:47.72]So you'll feel bad but they'll feel worse
[00:50.41]Without you what would the doctor be
[00:54.70]I'm watching you but not like quite before
[00:59.26]I will find you you're the one I've been looking for
[01:02.70]But when it's over don't say sorry any more
[01:09.63]Abreast this painter run him down
[01:11.76]Into the night to paint the town
[01:13.89]While putting everybody on
[01:16.32]Blowing smoke rings for the crown
[01:18.29]You brag of those you've been around
[01:20.21]You listen to your silly sounds
[01:22.34]Disciples pass your bread around
[01:24.24]While the cross is hidden in your gown
[01:26.60]They think that they're on holy ground
[01:28.66]Not knowing Judas watches from the tree
[01:32.72]While posing as the saint of need
[01:35.18]You got fathered to the one who's weak
[01:37.27]By using words like sad defeat
[01:39.35]You laugh but you got lose the beat
[01:41.75]The girls all giggle at your feet
[01:43.78]The squealing people that you meet
[01:45.82]You might get made but be discreet
[01:47.74]Don't you take your mask of trick or treat
[01:50.00]As you get the stars down on their knees
[01:52.09]But do you really think that you have far to meet
[01:56.46]Believing in the magic noose
[01:58.54]That trips the egg the golden goose
[02:00.49]And with it you can never lose
[02:02.60]While fairy tales steal the truth
[02:04.78]I don't let go hey
[02:05.89]I don't let loose
[02:06.58]For the goose is flipping of the roof
[02:08.95]And without its wings how can you be free
[02:12.98]But I'm watching you but not quite like  before
[02:17.59]I will find you you're the one I've been looking for
[02:21.22]But when it's over don't say sorry any more
[03:17.88]That ranger he just rides along
[03:19.88]Protecting those that don't belong
[03:21.93]In the land that has no right or wrong
[03:24.21]Time till you just load his gun
[03:26.26]For killing outlaws one by one
[03:28.22]Shooting in-laws just for fun
[03:30.24]While the jungle laws are on the run
[03:32.58]Step out before you get stepped on
[03:34.58]Sadists wear their war paint on
[03:36.91]Afraid if you're in the dark to long
[03:38.85]Cause you the jungle is no place for the meek
[03:42.92]You say life is absurdity carnival for melodies
[03:47.14]You hide the big time bitterly
[03:49.38]You set the stage so faithfully
[03:51.32]You're hocker for more mystery
[03:53.37]While marching so religiously
[03:55.43]Is the army that has paid to see
[03:57.69]The choir boy of reality
[03:59.78]Laugh at all authority
[04:01.99]And you smile oh so cynically
[04:04.30]Sole possessor of his key
[04:06.18]And it's sad to know that's all you'll ever be
[04:09.79]And you said keep on the sunny side
[04:12.71]That life is just a rainbow ride
[04:15.01]Silver studded surfboard glide
[04:17.04]On the whinning waves keep your hide
[04:19.05]Don't you hit the moon when you fly to wide
[04:21.31]It'll bring to you down below the tide
[04:23.32]It's where no one keeps their tears inside
[04:25.57]The waters can hide them if you cry
[04:27.97]For in the waves there are no mysteries
[04:31.96]But I'm watching you but not  quite like  before
[04:36.67]I will find you you're the one I've been looking for
[04:40.16]But when it's over don't say sorry any more
