living my fantasies of being in a blues-rock jam band
lyrics
Waiting For The Dirt
Outside there’s a waterfall
where there used to run a road
but the road moved on ‘cause it got hungry
It gathered up sharp weapons
to engage those enemies
‘cause when the road don’t flow
then you can’t follow
And you’re waiting for the dirt to fall
waiting for the dirt to fall
spend your time bitchin’ and crying
waiting for the dirt to fall
‘Cause every once in a blue moon
there’s a chance that you might see
a flash of light that cuts through the darkness
And what else is there
Oh what else could set you free
when there ain’t one single thing
here worth saving
And you’re waiting for the dirt to fall
waiting for the dirt to fall
spend your time bitchin’ and crying
waiting for the dirt to fall
Hey if you don’t want this
don’t raise up your hand
cause hey it ain’t no measure
of your life or your worth as a man
Outside there’s a waterfall
where there used to run a road
but the road moved on ‘cause it got hungry
And what else is there
Oh what else could set you free
when there aint one single thing
here worth saving
And you’re waiting for the dirt to fall
waiting for the dirt to fall
spend your time bitchin’ and crying
waiting for the dirt to fall
And you’re waiting for the dirt to fall
waiting for the dirt to fall
spend your time bitchin’ and crying
waiting for the dirt to fall
