Lyrics Screaming Trees

Screaming Trees

Troubled Times

Lay it to rest

You know my word ain't the best

It's just another question of faith

That I must take

Till it's laid to waste

Laid to waste, oh

I stood and I watched you weep

Until I'm gone you're sure to cry some more

I stayed, lit a cigarette

I thought we'd been here some time before

Booked and I got to hurry

Troubled times and worry

Turn your head away

Swear to you now I'm learning

Troubled times are turning

Turn your head away

She said that it's five a.m.

I think it's time for you to go

Got to hurry, got to get on board

And drink myself to sleep at home

Booked and I got to hurry

Troubled times and worry

Turn your head away

Swear to you I'm learning

Troubled times are turning

Turn your head away

Shimmy on down, baby

Shimmy on down, baby

Shimmy on down, baby

Shimmy on down, baby

Booked and I got to hurry

Troubled times and worry

Turn your head away

Swear to you I'm learning

Troubled times are turning

Turn your head away

Booked and I got to hurry

Troubled times and worry

Turn your head away

Swear to you I'm learning

Troubled times are turning

Turn your head away

Shimmy on down baby

Shimmy on down baby

Shimmy on down

Lay it to rest

You know my love ain't the best

This is just another question of taste

That I must take

Till it's laid to waste
