Shakey Graves - Tin Man Lyrics
[Verse 1]Once upon your favorite dreamThings were different but familiarStraw was stickin' out your seatEverything was technicolorIsn't it sad to be back in black-and-white?No yellow road, no witch to fight?Too bad there's no place like home[Chorus]You ain't dead yetTwenty-seven came and wentNow you live to fight another dayAs the hero of the carpool laneDay by day, if the posted limit you obeyThen the biggest shot in your lifeWill be dressed with salt and lime[Verse 2]Once upon a terrible dreamYou couldn't move a muscleCan't even pick an apple off of a treeWithout gettin' into troubleIsn't it good to be back in black-and-white?No yellow road, no witch inside?Thank God there's no place like home[Bridge]Scarcrow ain't got nothin' on meI'm thinkin', I'm blinkin', I'm blinkin' todayThe lie never was cowardly'Cause I'm shrinkin', I'm shrinkin', I'm shrinkin' awayThe tin man ain't got nothin' on youYour heart is beatin', beatin' 'cause...[Chorus]You ain't dead yetTwenty-seven came and wentNow you live to fight another dayAs the hero of the carpool laneDay by day, if the posted limit you obeyThen the biggest shot in your lifeWill come dressed with salt and lime
