Shake Yourself Loose Songtext / Lyric

How much rope you gonna give yourself?

How much slack do you need

In order not to hang yourself up on the street?

You say, you learned your lesson

But I know that that ain't true

When I see that feeling come over you






But I don't blame you, baby, 'cause it really ain't no use

I believe that you believe, you're searching for the truth

I don't know what hold that rounder downtown has on you

But keep on shaking, baby, till you shake yourself loose



I'm not running away from trouble, I'm walking away from an accident

Involving a personality double and a hole with a head in it

Ain't nothing I can say, ain't nothing I can do

When I see that feeling come over you



But I don't blame you, baby, 'cause it really ain't no use

I believe that you believe, you're searching for the truth

I don't know what hold that rounder downtown has on you

But keep on shaking, baby, till you shake yourself loose
