There's a line I've been in since late afternoon
It heads down south on the avenue
I listen to the talking from the sane in the front
And he's looking down the barrel...of a loaded gun
I'm sitting in a room with the men upstairs
Paying more attention to the woman over there
I don't ask a lot and i barely say a thing
But my hands don't go together, and I'm done wearing
Put the well in the time, and the fire in the water
Im in a town with no sinners, like a grave robber's daughter
The woman in a dress down to her knees
Wants to please her mother has two sugars in her tea
She told me all the secrets that she has in her side
And she told me what she does, before she sleeps at night
Put the well in the time, and the fire in the water
I'm in a town with no sinners, like a grave robber's daughter
Served by a boy, waiting for five
He wakes on a Sunday to base his life
On a book he's never read, with a girl he barely knows
And he's never seeing her bed, 'til the till is closed
Put the well in the time, and the fire in the water
I'm in a town with no sinners, like a grave robber's daughters, yeah
Put the well in the time, and the fire in the water
I'm in a town with no sinners, like a grave robber's daughter
