Lyrics transcript

Reviewed lyrics for Tin Can Whiskey.

I

woke up for blue rays,

With a bottle and a busted frame

Dog meat found me by the train

Tail like a flag in the rain

I said, boy, we got a long road

He just looked like he already knew

Pass a church with a broken door

And a sky that wouldn't turn blue

So I pour one for the ghosts I keep

For the bombs and the dirt out east

And I laughed at the rotten rust

'Cause it's hell, but it's still us Ten can

of whiskey

Keep me movin' Gentle can be scared Keep me

hewin'

The world goes black

And the ground gives way

Hold me one more I'll find my way

Piper talked fast in Diamond City

Like the truth was a prize to steal

Nick said, kid, I've seen worse than this

With a heart that still knows what's real

Kate said I'd fight for the moment

Preston said there's people in need

And I held that glass like a promise

To the wreckage I still believe

So I poured one for the road I chose

For the ones I lost and the ones I

know

And I stare down that cold heart of fat

The dead don't call, but they still come back

Chin can't receive Keep me moving Chin can't escape

Keep me human

And the world goes black

And the ground gives way

Pull me one more

I'll find my way

There's a shack by the river bend

Where the lantern leans in the wind

You can hear the old world creak

And the floorboards under your feet

If you find me there at last

Don't ask why my hands still shake

Just set that bottle on the table

And let the poor machine break Chin can't whistle

Keep me moving

Ten can be scared Keep me human

If the world goes black

And the ground gives way

Pour me one more

I'll find my way

Dog meat at my side

Ash in my throat

Still I sing

Still

I go Thank you.
