Joel Havea Trio - Hell to Pay Lyrics

In the swamp
Been stuck for a while
Bout time to climb on out
Still hitting bumps
Mile after mile
Moving on and on and on somehow

There was hell to pay
Was not ok
Didn't want to play
But better get up now, its time

Saw a ghost
But then I had to smile
Shows just how long that I've been on the out
And I'm getting close
Or maybe in denial
Moving on and on and on through all the doubt

There was hell to pay
Was not ok
Didn't want to play
But better get up now, its time
Hell to pay
Just slept all day
As the sun slipped away
But time to get up now, all right

Can't help but be embarrassed
When I'm honest with myself
Not that it even matters
When I see somebody else
Somebody else

There was hell to pay
Was not ok
Didn't want to play
But better get up now, its time
Hell to pay
Just slept all day
As the sun slipped away
But time to get up now, all right
