When I Get My Rewards Songtext
von Harry Dean Stanton

Oh the nights are so still
Not a baby will cry
Not a chill wind will blow
Disturbing the sky
But there′s no peace in me
I'm burning for you
I′m walking the floor
In the devil's shoes


When I get my rewards
I will bring them to you
I will ask for your love
And swear mine is true
Will you cast me aside
And see me no more
How can I win your heart
When I get my rewards

They say that your hand
Can never touch mine
That a poor boy can't hope
For a woman so fine
But I work till I fall
Determined to win
Driven by need
To see you again

When I get my rewards
I will bring them to you
And I will ask for your love
And swear mine is true


Will you cast me aside
And see me no more
Or will I win your heart
When I get my reward
