Well the first days are the hardest days, don't you worry any more, |
|
'cause when life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door. |
|
Think this through with me, let me know your mind, |
|
Wo, oh, what i want to know, is are you kind? |
|
It's a buck dancer's choice my friend; better take my advice. |
|
You know all the rules by now and the fire from the ice. |
|
Will you come with me? won't you come with me? |
|
Wo, oh, what i want to know, will you come with me? |
|
Goddamn, well i declare, have you seen the like? |
|
Their wall are built of cannonballs, their motto is "don't tread on me". |
|
Come hear uncle john's band playing to the tide, |
|
Come with me, or go alone, he's come to take his children home. |
|
It's the same story the crow told me; it's the only one he knows. |
|
Like the morning sun you come and like the wind you go. |
|
Ain't no time to hate, barely time to wait, |
|
Wo, oh, what i want to know, where does the time go? |
|
I live in a silver mine and i call it beggar's tomb; |
|
I got me a violin and i beg you call the tune, |
|
Anybody's choice, i can hear your voice. |
|
Wo, oh, what i want to know, how does the song go? |
|
Come hear uncle john's band by the riverside, |
|
Got some things to talk about, here beside the rising tide. |
|
Come hear uncle john's band playing to the tide, |
|
Come on along, or go alone, he's come to take his children home. |
|
Wo, oh, what i want to know, how does the song go. |
