about

from Shelley Miller's 2012 album, 'February'. Possibly inspired by Marie's Riptide Lounge.

lyrics

Devil, oh devil, what is it you've been dying to say
You've got a line a mile long outside your door
Of folks who'd rather lock their troubles away
You got an angel with an arrow and an alibi
On the roof ready to make his stand
I hope I made it plenty clear to you late last night
That you're never gonna get my hand

Help me Jesus to walk
Oh lord, I gotta walk away
I know love is gonna come for me one of these nights
'Til then I better walk away

Angel, my angel, was there something you was trying to say
I've seen you sitting in the shadows all night long
Playing cards while the drunks play keep away
I hope you know that nothing good ever comes of nothing
In a place like this on this side of town
Still I appreciate you comin', tryin' to bend my ear
Get me up so I can get back down

Help me Jesus to walk
Oh lord, I gotta walk away
I know love is gonna come for me one of these nights
'Til then I better walk away

Mary, oh my Mary, you tried to wait up for the judgment day
But your TV turned to static and all that emphatic talking
Just scared the lord away
Now you sit here with a bottle almost every night
Making prayers and taking pains
To catch the man behind the bar with eyes like a star
He seems familiar, but you just can't place him

Help me Jesus to walk
Oh lord, I gotta walk away
I know love is gonna come for me one of these nights
'Til then I better walk away, help me Jesus
'Til then I better walk away, help me Jesus
'Til then...I better walk away

about

Shelley Miller Chicago, Illinois

Shelley Miller isn't afraid to take chances. Less interested in genre than honesty, she pens darkly soulful tunes about life just outside the lines. Folk? Perhaps...late-night jukebox folk. Gospel for non-believers folk. Had-one-too-many-and-lived-to-tell folk. Rock hymns for the unhemmed folk.

Shelley released her 4th album, February, in March 2012. She lives in Chicago.
