Gratitude Walks

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Why don't you be good for something And draw down the shade On a sun that sat up all night shivering On a sun that sat up all night afraid One that shines on the oasis that Leads a man to drink Drunk on the kind of applause That gets louder the lower you sink [Chorus] Gratitude walks Gratitude walks Gratitude walks on Sixth Street [Verse 2] Pull it from the air And they throw it in the blue And you're spinning under their wheels Trapped in your room And you're jumpy, you don't want to see You don't want to see 'em have their fun Oh, slap her face if she should laugh Push him down if he should try and run [Chorus] Gratitude walks Gratitude walks Gratitude walks on Sixth Street [Bridge] Take a number for your big moment They solved the rules of dreamland In cotton wool, and cement Well it's never what you want It's just the kind of thing that always happens here Yeah, you watch the good old days pass you by Leaving your cupboards bare [Chorus] Gratitude walks Gratitude walks Gratitude walks on Sixth Street Hey, Gratitude walks Gratitude walks Gratitude walks on Sixth Street
