Lifeline Lyrics

They say I been carousing too much
Drinking like a sailor, and smoking like the Dutch
But I don't mind
I feel fine, and
I got a long Lifeline

Skeletons clattering in the breeze
Got a rope around my neck and I'm hanging from the trees
But I don't mind
I feel fine, and
I got a long Lifeline

I been talking with my old friends
To come to a consensus
I'm a sentimental fool
But you won't catch me crying
You might not like my chances
When I'm swinging from the fences
But I'll have a hack at it, one more time

Methuselah and me, we're good pals
But we're fighting in the alley over gambling debts and gals
But I don't mind
I feel fine, and
I got a long Lifeline
