Hey Tonya Lyrics by Dave Carter

Snake-Handlin’ Man

0

Jack be nimble, jump and spin
Jack's a little hard to handle but he plays to win
Now the sheep's in the meadow, and the kids are sleepin'
Little bo peep, she don't know the company you're keepin'
Hey Tonya
The hour is overdue
For the hunter's moon in you
To come out and shine
Hey Tonya
I would not take you to task
For the wolf behind the mask
She's a friend of mine
And anytime
They surround you with their silver-bullet tongues
And you can't find a way to face 'em and
There's no place to run
And the queen of hearts holed up in London tower
Come thunderin' down
And big ben chimes the midnight hour
Hey Tonya
If you called me I would come
We would make the peasants run
We'd light up the sky
Hey Tonya
They got nothin' left to steal
And if they chained you to the wheel
You would pine and die
So would I
Now the winner's circle makes the rules in court
We get our spin on the wheel of fortune but we always come up short
So we play the game as long as we are able
But heaven's for the blessed, and the rest is just a young girl's fable
Hey Tonya
I got nothin' up my smile
And I been a good long while
Up against this wall
Hey Tonya
Fame is only for a day
And we all have feet of clay
And even angels fall
After all
