maggie roche – down the dream (live) lyrics
[verse 1]
i stopped to lean
at the entrance to the highway
on a leg of an underpass
and it was there that george caught up with me
we drank his pint of freedom
down the dream
[verse 2]
i invest my soul in company
i bet the big exchange
first of all for love of thee and
seconal deranged
there oughta be something to fall back on
like a knife or a career
ooh, heavy is a heart that bears a started life
in the dyin’ time of year
woah, in the dyin’ time of year
[bridge]
i left my pots and plans on the landlord’s stove
was drove down through the texas heat
threw my love out in the street
[verse 3]
george is colored and i’m white
but george could go for me
george was wonderin’ if i might
go for him
go to louisiana
rockin’ a banjo on my knee
after a man that said he’d go for me
george, i’m all gone down the dream
george, i’m all gone down the dream
george, i’m all gone down the dream
[outro]
thank you very much
