And That's a Lot

Jim Lauderdale


Revelations of the deepest kind
are the kind I've been gettin' since you're on my mind
And that's a lot
I've been walking on fire and chewing nails
I must've got lost on the way to hell
And that's a lot that's a lot

Cause when you get right down to the skin and bones
It's just too hard to leave you alone
You make the spirits dance and sing oh la la
You shake my world and soothe my soul

They all started to smile when the master spoke
Started going around like an inside joke
And that's a lot
Well he talked about a man who loved a woman so much
Made the earth heaven with her special touch
And that's a lot that's a lot oh that's a lot oh yeah

When you get right down to the skin and bones...
[ guitar ]
It's not every night that you get reborn
Not every day that your mind is torn
And that's a lot
I swear the world around me is turning blue
I think my skin is burning but I only feel you
And that's a lot oh that's a lot
Oh that's a lot oh yeah

When you get right down to the skin and bones...
It's not every night that you get reborn...
When you get right down to the skin and bones...

Revelations of the deepest kind
Are the kind I've been gettin' since you're on my mind
And that's a lot
