RUB MY TROUBLES

rub my troubles rub my troubles
rub it away
i'm done worrying about what i can't change
all i want to do is live through a great depression with you
rub my troubles rub my troubles
rub it away
i'm done worrying about what i cn't change
all i want to do is live through a great depression with you

i went walking across the street
i went drowning across the seas
i touched all the rocks in my way
14 years, twice a night
tackle myself, till i get it right
wake up and think who else could i possibly be
i will rub my troubles rub my troubles rub them away...

put on too much
button up your boots
there's no going back
back to where you knew
before you said hello
to g-d's least favorite toy
before you said goodbye
to your little boy

as you rub my troubles rub my troubles rub them away...
rub my troubles rub my troubles rub them away...
all i want to do is live through a great depression or two
rub my troubles rub my troubles rub them away...
all i want to do is live through a great depression or two

red skeleton for hire
lying at your boots
tell your father he's a liar
and you've finally got the proof
'cause in that land beyond this land , in the man beyond this man,
things will stay exactly as they are.
