Jakob Dylan - Everybody Pays as They Go Lyrics

I'm worried 'bout you baby down in your rabbit hole

The evening of our great escape is starting to unfold

Out of bed, sleepy head it's different than you know

Everybody pays as they go

Now pull yourself together, put your chin up off your throat

Now whistle for the dogs and get your sled into the snow

Nothing's ever buried under skull and bones

Everybody pays as they go

Ooh, ooh

The playing field is level but it's ugly down below

It's a devil of a handbook, hi, ho, hi, ho

Now either you're the butcher or the lamb but even so

Everybody pays as they go

The future busted open wide and ran

Like a beehive loaded with sand

You can't go back and see it

The way you saw it then and nobody can

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Look up and see the men returning in their winter coats

Now some of them in one piece and some of them got rolled

And some less than others, some right through the nose

But everybody pays as they go

The young, old, and rich and poor, your mother, she too owes

'Cuz everybody pays as they go

Everybody pays

Yes, everybody pays as they go
