    Steel My Heart on CD = Balancing the Weight of Life

    I can hear her talking and it sounds like broken glass
    I know the signs something terrible is coming to pass
    She’s getting ready to serve up misery and it’s all gonna pour right down on me
    I can hear her talking and it sounds like broken glass

    Steel my heart, Lord, steel my heart
    There’s an ill wind blowing and it’s gonna tear me apart
    Steel my heart, Lord, steel my heart
    I got a real bad feeling it’s time for some trouble to start

    Thunder and lightning, they don’t scare me none
    But that look in her eyes, oh, should I stand or run
    She’s got a tongue that cuts right to the bone, leaving nothing but a pile of whimper and moan
    Oh, but thunder and lightning, they don’t scare me none

    I’m getting older, I’ve got a bad shoulder and my hip still aches from a fall
    But when you sort it all out there ain’t no doubt
    An angry woman tops ‘em all
