lyrics

Heavy Hand

Babe, you left me with a heavy hand –
It weeps all night and sleeps all day.
It won’t take calls or come to the door
When others ask it out to play.

Babe, you left me with a heavy hand –
It lies around and it rants and raves.
It hasn’t held a fork in days
And barely bathes and never shaves.

Oh, babe, what did I do?
Oh, I just can’t understand.
Why did you do me like you did me?
Left me here with nothin but a heavy hand.

Babe, you let my poor hand down.
Nailed it right down to the floor.
Without your weight to keep it still
It just won’t raise up anymore.

Oh, babe, what did I do?
Oh, I just can’t understand.
Why did you do me like you did me?
Left me here with nothin but a heavy hand.

Well, put that glass back in my hand
And darlin’ – pour yourself right in.
Make it raise you to my lips
So I can taste your pain again.
Yes, put that glass back in my hand
And darlin’ – pour yourself right in.
Make it raise you to my lips
So I can taste your pain again.
So I can taste your pain again.
So I can taste your pain again.
