Lyrics for Bartering Lines

Hold me up, hold me down Leave me in the withering pines Steal my love, steal my kisses Take 'em to the bartering lines Ten cents up, two bucks down Ship it out and turn it into fuel Three bucks shy Leave it on the table till somebody else with moneys got a use Spinnin' so hard I cant stand Shadow of a shadowy man Hold me up hold my hand The treasures that she misses make the man Ten cents up, two bucks down Ship it out and turn it into fuel Three bucks shy Leave it on the table till somebody else with moneys got a use So hold me up, tie me down Leave me in the withering pines Steal my love, steal my kisses Evaluate the differences in life Ten cents up, two bucks down Ship it out and turn it into fuel Three bucks shy Leave it on the table till somebody else with moneys got a use Repeat
