Heart Full Of Holes - Mark Knopfler You can tell me your troubles, Ill listen for free
My regulars trust me, seems You can come and see Uncle to get through the week
Leave your pledges with me to redeem
Some folk sell their bodies for ten bob a go
Politicians go pawning their souls
Which doesnt make me look too bad, dont you know
Me with my heart full of holes
All my yesterdays broken,
a watch with no face
All battered and old
Bits of the movement all over the place
And a heart full of holes
A heart full of holes
Heart full of holes
A heart full of holes
Heart full of holes
Brass knuckles and banjos are out on the town
At the knees-up in Teddy Boys Row
The gold block and tackle tells the time upside down
Rock n roll, well, I dont know
Dead peoples wedding gifts, walk out the door
A clarinet squeals to be free
Accordions hop from the shelves to the floor Start playing their polkas to me
Theres a ringing of bells,
a dunderheads curse
Fingers are pointing at you
And you take work in hell,
be glad its not worse
And you get to the back of the queue
Handcuffs and hunting knives clang on the bars
Air pistols shoot out the lights
Ive a whole wailing wall of electric guitars
Could shatter the windows down Brick Lane tonight
If one of us dies, love, I think Ill retire
See my boys and my beautiful girls
Garden of Eden, no gates or barbed wire Who knows, maybe gates made of pearls
Well, if we go to heaven,
and some say we dont
But if theres a reckoning day
Please God, Ill see You and maybe I wont
Ive a bag packed to go either way
Redeeming your pledge, dear, Ill keep it for you
Its not gonna go anywhere But your soul, your soul, that is not what I do
Theres not a lot I can do there
I remember the officers watch in my hand
Repair it or die I was told
Its a wonder to me, I still dont understand
Why I ever survived to be old With a heart full of holes
Heart full of holes
A heart full of holes
Heart full of holes
A heart full of holes
Heart full of holes
A heart full of holes
Heart full of holes
