The Flatlanders - You Make It Look Easy Lyrics

Shattered and scattered to the four wild winds
My angels and my devils and a few of my friends
You got em all to dancing on the head of a pin
You make it look easy
You make it look easy

You were starring in a drama I was starring in a dream
We met out in the alley or so it seems
I wish I knew the difference
Between a scam and a scheme
You make it look easy

We stumbled into something it was over our heads
We came crawling back when they left us for dead
You should of seen the look
On your face when I said
You make it look easy
You make it look easy

Hell bent for leather spinning out of control
Into a whirling, world with no soul
I'm feeling kinda dizzy but you're still on a roll
You make it look easy
You make it look easy

I stumbled into something it was over my head
I came crawling back when they left me for dead
You should of seen the look
On her face when I said
You make it look easy
You make it look easy
You make it look easy
You make it look easy

You can step to the stage in your high styling hat
But the spot light follows that old alley cat
How do you hold your head up
After something like that
You make it look easy
You make it look easy
You make it look easy
You make it look easy
