13 Clocks

[Chorus]
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down

[Verse 2]
One clock keeps time for the soldiers in the army
One clock keeps time for the girl I left behind me
One clock keeps time for the victims of the blood
Buried to the neck in the Louisiana mud

[Chorus]
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down

[Verse 2]
One clock keeps time for the solitary mother
One clock keeps time for lovin' one another
One clock keeps time for the countdown to distastеr
Just tryin' to slow it down a-seems to make it run faster

[Chorus]
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't lеt a-one run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down

[Verse 3]
That leaves one clock more whose tickin' drives me crazy
Not up to me to wind it, it's not because I'm lazy
The clock of my own days for I know not the hour
The alarm is set to wake me, I do not have that power

[Chorus]
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let 'em all run down
Thirteen clocks, gotta keep 'em wound
Thirteen clocks, can't let a-one run down

[Outro]
(Thirteen clocks, don't let 'em run down)
Can't let 'em run down
(Thirteen clocks, don't let 'em run down)
You gotta keep 'em wound up
You can't let 'em run down
(Thirteen clocks, don't let 'em run down)
(Thirteen clocks, don't let 'em run down)
