"Broken Hands" lyrics - MICK TAYLOR

Yeah, I got broken hands
Feel so loose and I feel so free,
Running so fast that you can't catch me
Play the night like a dream machine,
Play my guitar 'cause I feel so mean
Drivin' down the highway,
Trying to get ahead,
And to shake the blues away

Yeah, broken hands, I'm a broken man
Ah baby, where are we,
Howling winds on a heavy sea
Always think that you got it made
I can never see you behind your shades
Fools are around me, the devils inside
So much craziness to exercise
Lets get small and get some lovin' done
This life's so hard, hit and run
There's nothin happenin' here anyway
If we sit around much longer we're gonna slide away
Mesmerizing, washed out eyes,
Users and losers, hypnotized

I like music that sounds so sweet
I like to dance, and move my feet
When I hear such a heavy sound,
Come on baby, let's get down
Drivin' down the highway,
I'm just trying to get ahead,
And to shake these blues away
There's nothin' happenin' here anyway

Yeah, broken hands, I'm down and out
Gimme a smile, and I'll pull ya out
Yeah, broken hands
Yeah, broken hands, I'm a broken man
Yeah, broken hands, I'm down and out
Gimme a smile, and I'll pull ya out
(oh baby, they can't catch me...)
