Chatterbox Mind
Words and Music by Bee Branch
Got a chatterbox mind, won’t leave me alone
Run away all the time, ain’t nobody else home
When the light blows out and it’s time to sleep
Chatterbox mind sinks a hook in me
Flapping all night like a fish on string
Chatterbox mind, let go of me
Got a restless soul it won’t settle down
Keeps digging the same old hole in the same old ground
When the light blows out and it’s time to sleep
Restless soul ties a noose around me
Lies like moss on the grave of the meek
Restless soul, turn loose of me
Got a willful heart and it won’t give up
‘Bout to beat me to death in the chamber of love
When the light blows out and it’s time to sleep
Willful heart squeezes the life out of me
Muscle of steel pounding ‘til somebody bleeds
Willful heart, let go of me
When the light blows out and it’s time to sleep
Chatterbox mind takes over me
Flapping all night, like a fish on string
Lies like moss on the grave of the meek
Muscle of steel pounding ‘til someone bleeds
Chatterbox mind, let go of me
Restless soul, turn loose of me
Willful heart, just let me sleep
