Miles to Go Lyrics by Toad and the Stooligans

Very Handsome

2017

[Intro]
Pony up, pony up, pony up
Ante up, ante up, ante up
Pony up, pony up, pony up
Ante up, ante up, ante up, ante up
[Verse 1]
Pony up, pony up, pony up
Got my gun in my holster, rum in my cup
Snakeskin feels the grace of the mud
As I pull through the sludge, half-drunk off a grudge
Lost my sums to a bluff
Succumb to the plunge in the slums where he sunk
Not a breath in his lungs
And now he pressin' his luck when he gambles
Remain the gust of a phantom
All windows shut, he alone in the dark now
Except the flame on his candle
So now he thrown to the jaws
Of a world where he burns what was cold from the start
Can only hopе for a flush where I roam
Or I'll fold and go home with my cards
Lord knows I won't bе froze in the sun
[Chorus]
I've got miles to go before
(Pony up, pony up, pony up)
Miles to go before I go down
(Ante up, ante up, ante up)
I've got miles to go before I
(Dust to dust and it's dust to dust)
I've got miles to go before I go down to sleep
(Keep it ridin' 'til the sun comes up)
[Verse 2]
Ante up, ante up, ante up
Put my soul as the wager, my hole freshly dug
Old dirt to soft skin
Play the game like a mass grave, homie goin' all in
I got a ace up my sleeve
It doesn't matter, I'm arraigned in a week
And I can feel my feet sway in the breeze
Like a haze in a dream when I hang from that tree
Oh, how familiar it sounds
Reminiscent of a six-shooter spittin' off rounds
And it's like in this life, every day is roulette
When everything you possess gets placed up for bets
Keep moving, remain the ghost of your town
Hear the story from your son when the sun goes down
And I know nothing but to run from the clouds
So it's dust to dust and we all fall down
[Chorus]
I've got miles to go before
(Pony up, pony up, pony up)
Miles to go before I go down
(Ante up, ante up, ante up)
I've got miles to go before I
(Dust to dust and it's dust to dust)
I've got miles to go before I go down to sleep
(Keep it ridin' 'til the sun comes up)
[Outro]
I've got miles to go before
Miles to go before I go down
I've got miles to go before I
I've got miles to go before I go down to sleep
