Hat In Hand Lyrics & Chords By Bill Mallonee

Pen the lament and shadow your eyes
There's a vapor trail stretching across a Kansas sky
Dirt lot kids making dirt lot plans
Shuffle forward your hat in hand
Could be the hangman could be the noose
Could be the engine could be the caboose
It pays to know on which side you stand
Shuffle forward your hat in hand
Yeah gold in this house there's gold in my band
There's gold in your blouse honey gold in my hand
It's a rhythm and mystery you don't quite understand
Shuffle forward your hat in hand
Run fast after everything
And that's just what you'll miss
Live your life opened armed
Or with a clenched fist
Dirt lot kids doing dirt lot deeds
Way too much living in the minor key
Burn all these sins in a Love so grand
Shuffle forward your hat in hand
