Sugarcane Gamblers by Travis Shallow Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2016

(VERSE)
Spending my time drinking Bali Hai wine
Waitin' on the snowflakes to winter
Stitching up the seems of a hand me down jacket 
Drowning out the fire I couldn't kindle

I'm running straight into the wind
With a bag of dirt, a bucket of stones 
Call me what you will baby I'm leaving

(CHORUS)
I wait for the fields to show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane 
The world let you down so you're headed southbound 
For a new start, a new wish, a new season
For a new start, a new wish, a new season

(VERSE)
Spinning my wheels and burning down bridges 
The only day job I could keep
I was built like a spark burn bright till it stops 
Then kneel down and ask for forgiveness
I'm running straight into the wind 
With a bag of dirt and a bucket of stones 
Call me what you will baby I'm leaving

(CHORUS)
You wait for the fields to show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane 
The world let you down so you're headed southbound 
For a new start, a new wish, a new season
For a new start, a new wish, a new season

(BRIDGE)
You're slamming down bottles 
Your mind starts to wander 
The money just ain't coming in 
You thought about sellin’
To Uncle Sam or the devil 
But never look in the mirror again
It's time to wait it out 
And wait for the bank or leave it to faith 
Call me what you will baby I'm leavin’ 

(CHORUS)
You wait for the fields to show what they yield
You gambled on corn and sugarcane 
Now the world let you down so you're headed southbound 
For a new start, a new wish, a new season
A new start, a new wish, a new season
A new start, a new wish, a new season
