Cut the Deck
And I built your house, I laid your floor Carried your flag, I fought your war I swear by the toes of the Jones above All I ever wanted was some of your love
I was born one American spring Where love didn't matter and birds didn't sing Rolled from my cradle and picked up my drum Crawled to the highway, stuck out my thumb
Slept in the forest of shut my mouth Awoke with the sun and cut due south Didn't know nothin', I was starting from scratch I needed hot water, I invented the match
The match wouldn't strike, I invented the glass And drank cold water thinking 'all things pass' Rode on a black horse, rode upon a white Whistled up the wind and taught it how to bite
And I built your house, I laid your floor Carried your flag, I fought your war I swear by the toes of the Jones above All I ever wanted was some of your love
Just some of your love Some of your love
Gambled with the boneman one black night 49 cards, we were three jacks light I couldn't tell an ace from a deuce by feel Boneman said, 'shut up and deal'

The match wouldn't strike I Invented the glass And drank cold water thinking 'all things pass' Rode on a black horse, rode upon a white Whistled up the wind and taught it how to bite
Then I built your house, I laid your floor Carried your flag, I fought your war Swear by the toes of the Jones above All I ever wanted was some of your love
Then I built your house, laid your floor Carried your flag, I fought your war I swear by the toes of the Jones above All I ever wanted was some of your love
Just some of your love Some of your love Some of your love Some of your love Some of your love Some of your love Some of your love Some of your love Some of your love Some of your love
