JOE BONAMASSA

- Dust Bowl Lyrics

Gonna make my own way, gonna head downtown,
Walk around, settle down, find me a proper drink,
Don't need a helmet to get me through life,
I walk across the water, blame it on foolish pride.

(Chorus)
Lifting me up, tearing me down,
All you give me is indecision the classic run-around,
Bringing me higher, keeping me whole,
Now I feel I've been living, living in a dustbowl.

Diamonds and pearls, you're that kinda girl,
You size me up to tear me down while you're sipping on your Crown Royal,
I'll give you shelter, babe, it's your call,
It's hard to find the truth within when you are living in your own zone.
(Chorus)
Lifting me up, tearing me down,
All you give me is indecision the classic run-around,
Bringing me higher, keeping me whole,
Now I feel I've been living, living in a dustbowl.

Find in deception, the same kinda pain,
If all that's left for me to lose, is meant for you to gain,
Playing it close, stealing your time,
Who cares anyway, I've gone the extra mile.

(Chorus)
Lifting me up, tearing me down,
All you give me is indecision the classic run-around,
Bringing me higher, keeping me whole,
Now I feel I've been living, living in a dustbowl.

Living in a dustbowl
Living in a dustbowl

He's talking about how he feels about his girl...she brings him up, tears him down, and just doesn't know what she really wants so she gives him the runaround of "yes I want to be with you" to "no, I don't want to be with you", push-pull thing. As a result, the "living in a dust bowl" is him feeling dry and then finally the "all that's left for me to lose is meant for you to gain" means she was using him, so he finally lets go. I've seen this happen!
