Lyrics:
up off your good intentions
Get up off your stop and go go
Get up off your good intentions
Get a little get up and go
There's places to go and people
The facts we hate
We'll never meet
Walking down the road
Everybody yelling, "hurry up, hurry up"
But I'm waiting for you
I must go slow
I must
The facts we hate
We'll never meet
Walking down the road
Everybody yelling, "hurry up, hurry up"
But I'm waiting for you
I must go slow
I must
The main band of the night would be...
And I'd go on first and I'd get carried away...
Literally
And I moved to the big old smoky city
Just after University
the southland
Livin that hobos life
Sitting out by a campfire
Eating beans on a knife
There's a country shack
Way out back behind the auto body shop
Get
up and off the floor
I might just go to California
And get some good used records there
Fairport Convention
After the Gold Rush
Or Woody Guthrie in
up
Say yeah
Stand up
Stand up
Say yeah
(Stand up, never go down)
Check it out, listen
Ah, this o-o-obsession
It's gettin' a-invitin'
up
Say yeah
Stand up
Stand up
Say yeah
(Stand up, never go down)
Check it out, listen
Ah, this o-o-obsession
It's gettin' a-invitin'
Little by little, by little, by little, by little
Little by little, by little, by little, by little
You're messing up my life, tearing me apart
Little by little by little by little by little
Little by little by little by little by little
You're messing up my life, tearing me apart
Waste your time by saving worthless gullibles
Give up all additions in there where it's cold
This decade is the age of rehashing
Protest swine, go
Waste your time by saving worthless gullibles
Give up all additions in there where it's cold
This decade is the age of rehashing
Protest swine, go
gonna rise up singing
One of these mornings we're gonna rise up singing
Some days we do go hungry, and some days we do get bored
The tedium of poverty is
Just drop by my place on your way home
Let's go get stoned
It ain't no harm
You're takin just a taste
But don't blow your cool
And start messing
easier to tell the world to wait
And it gets easier to watch the world fly by
And tell it, "I will catch up, but not today"
I don't have to do
One
for this Dylan
Record oh yes please
And The Cream, and Rolling Stones
And Arlo Guthrie
A giant treasure trove all for pennies
And that’s how I caught
my shoulder
Say the things we used to say
And make the world, make it go away
Now I'm sorry if I hurt you
Let me make it up to you day by day
go it's time to move again
On and on it never ends
And just when you think you got it and you're finally in
It's time to wrap it up, pack it up
you know I work so hard all the day long
And everything I do just seems to turn out wrong
That's why I wanna stop by on my way home and
Let's go get
to pick up sticks
And they all go marching
Down to the ground
To get out of the rain
Boom, boom, boom, boom
Boom, boom, boom, boom
The ants go
back-to-back foreigns all in a row
Ride by the kid wit' the left up, draped up, dripped up
Hold up, I was just dabbin' by mistake
I was just fuckin' your
the things you used to say
And make the world go away
I'm sorry if I'll hurt you
I'll make it up day by day
Just say you love me like you used
to follow
A place I have to go
Well, no one told me just how to get there
But when I get there I'll know
'Cause I'm taking it
Step by step
Bit by bit
to follow
A place I have to go
Well, no one told me just how to get there
But when I get there I'll know
'Cause I'm taking it
Step by step
Bit by bit
