Lyrics

1991.11.16 - Italy (Interpretation 1)

Sit down easy, straight from the seat of my heart
Sit down easy straight from the seat of my heart

Don't let me detain you, try to ride along
Don't you die knowin' I am not sad
I am not savin' I am not sharin'
I am not sharin' the weight

Talk to me
In your own language please
In your own talk to me
In your own language please

Shake down easy, shake yourself Suzy, woman
If somehow make it full house, sad man

Leader of the band makes a mental hell
I won't whether it well, well I never ever
Saw it with my arm, paint it with my heart
Paint it with my eyes and make it right

Talk to me
In your own language please
In your own talk to me
In your own language please

Lay 'em down easy, lay it down seamy, sad man
Lay 'em down easy, lay it down seamy, sad man

You don't wanna hear this, I'm nothin but a whore
I will play the leader with pain
Now you know I'm needy
Lay 'em down easy, lay 'em down easy

Talk to me
In your own language please
In your own talk to me
In your own language please
In your own talk to me
In your own language please
In your own talk to me
In your own language please




1991.11.16 - Italy (Interpretation 2)

Sit down easy, straight from the scene of my woman
Sit down easy, straight from the scene of my woman

No one's ever seen him
??
? got it only
I am not sitting
I am not seven
I am not shaving
I am not saving (shipping) away

Talk to me
In your own language please
In your own (room)

Sit down easy
??
If somehow
Waiting for a house to ?
? ever and ever
? live forever
? live forever
??

Lay down easy
Right down to the start
Lay down easy
Right outside in the snow
??
? whore
??
