Solitaire

11. Solitaire

Sister barroom dancer,

good time romancer

Don't let the money man

take your love away

She says I don't feel no sorrow

Sometimes I gotta beg, steal, borrow

Wish I could turn back the hands

of time today

But you know the time don't kill the pain

So I'll take a little charity

and I'll be on my way If I have to deal my time I don't care, I'll deal my solitaire If I have to live a thousand lives I don't care, I'll deal my solitaire So you sing the blues my brother Go on, serenade your lover In some downtown subway He says it seems all I have is gone

All I got's this sad, sad song but I

I'm playing most of anything

To kill the time away

An island full of holes

Where nothing's beautiful

Still trying to grab a hold on
