Maria Daines ~ Losin’ the Will

’Losin’ the Will’ I told you yesterday the wheels come off Yah built it, broke it and the wheels come off Hit it with a hammer, don’t it give you a thrill Roll it like thunder Losin’ the will Heavy-duty chain but it ain’t gonna roll Smashin’ up a wreckage but it ain’t gonna roll Bust it like china, punch it out with a drill Steel boots n’ muscle Losin’ the will You throw it down n’ haul it up Stick a flag on the top for good luck Find a stash in the back, hide it down the track Last piece of gold in Louisville Losin’ the will I told you years ago, time will tell Ain’t find your fortune at the bottom of the well What you got now, just a twenty dollar bill Carvin’ buckets in a sawmill Losin’ the will You lookin’ everywhere for something to fight Belt full of bullets ain’t gonna save you tonight Screamin’ full of bourbon, hear your name on the hill Folks is waving farewell Losin’ the will You throw it down n’ haul it up Stick a flag on the top for good luck Find a stash in the back, hide it down the track Last piece of gold in Louisville Losin’ the will I told you yesterday the wheels come off Yah built it, broke it and the wheels come off Hit it with a hammer, don’t it give you a thrill Roll it like thunder Losin’ the will, hey Losin’ the will, hey C’mon, losin’ the will, hey Losin’ the will, hey Losin’ the will, hey Losin’ the will Losin’ the will © Maria Daines/Paul Killington 12th August 2023 Our thanks to the great photographers at Pexels & Pixabay for their amazing film clips and to Anja for the perfect picture.
