1
Nail it down, nail it down
2
Come back home and nail it down
3
You can't never get nothing up off the ground
4
If someone don't come along and nail it down
5
He says he knows, he says he knows
6
He's never ever been where his mouth goes
7
Well it's all the same that vicious zeal
8
But how does what's false apply to what is real?
9
And why's it got to be a mystery?
10
You got to lay it out
11
Like thunderheads creeping down the hill
12
And pretty soon everyone gets I'll
13
But I slip the net, being tall and thin
14
And pretty soon the dark turns to dim
15
I can see a little clearer now
16
You got to nail it down
17
Listen here, listen here
18
Tomorrow is the first day of the year
19
So cut the work that can't be done
20
You're either cutting all that work or you won't finish
21
None
22
You got to lay your tools out
23
Pick up one
24
All storms still stir
25
Behind a big sea wall
26
What's the point of something that you can't recall?
27
Give it time, give it time
28
It'll go to rack and ruin
29
And you'll lose your mind
30
You'll either learn to swim then
31
Or you'll be left behind
32
I'll try anything
33
Anything I think is good
34
And I'll do anything
35
Anything I think I should
36
I'll try anything
37
If it seems clearer at first light
38
I'll do anything
39
Before it's vanished from my sight
40
Her hair was wet
41
Her shoes were damp
42
And as she travelled on the weather licked her like a
43
Stamp
44
She said "I don't grasp the way you think sometimes
45
You're like a star that's died but hasn't lost it's
46
Shine"
47
My head is hollow as she turns to go
48
Nail it down
49
Nail it down, nail it down
50
Come back home and nail it down
51
Can't never get nothing up off the ground
52
If someone don't come along and nail it down
53
You break one law you break all laws
54
Nail it down
55
I'll try anything
56
Anything within a breath
57
I'll do anything
58
You know you would not want to pine to death
59
I'll try anything
60
Anything that's bought or sold
61
I'll try anything
62
Even something that you cannot hold
63
I'll do anything
64
Said the old man of the sea
65
I'd try anything
66
If you would only get along with me
67
And I've been everywhere
68
And I've done everything to do
69
But I'd try anything
70
If I could only get along with you
