Grass roots
Jumped into my old pickup
Gona meet my friends downtown
Gona drink till the sun comes up
Nothing else left in this old town

Boys are going to stir some trouble
Hear the sirens echo- time to go home
Gota run to keep my freedom
gota good girl and a baby at home

days are long nights even longer
winters fast apon us
getting colder gota find my way home
(now im stumbling my way back home
maybe she wont be angry this time

woke in the morning my head is pounding
kick the dog with a shot of lightning
sun so bright I cant even think man
maybe I should quit my drinking
but times are tuff when nobodys hiring
no job since the old mill left town
whats the use even complaining
just that theres a baby crying at home

stopped at the local tender -please poor me another
better make it a double for my brother two
dont want to start no trouble may I please have another
better make it a double for my mother too

come back home woman starts complaining
I can tell youve been drinkin
Dont you know this home is sinkin
Why dont you stop your drinkin

Baby I cant change it things are tuff-
since the old mill left town
Maybe I could tend some bar now-
flip some burgers maybe baby down town

Days are long nights even longer
Winters already on us-
got get to find work before we lose this home
Gota find my way back home-
I knew shed be angry this time

Slip on down into the basement
find my stash just were I left it-
times of trouble in an emergency-
when times are tuff just like these.

Baby I cant change it things are tuff since the old mill closed down
Bight the dog just where it bit me things are tuff since the old mill left town

The days are long the nights even longer
Winters already breaking im so cold gota find my way home
All in a drunken slumber because im falling under
Her bags are packed shes already leaving home

Hi Wolfgang, love this song, takes me back in time and reminds me of a album I used to love to isten to, but at this moment I can't quite catch which band it was. Great sound! *****

[wolfgang8u]

thanks! i wrote this song in tears i guess maybe it was the wine i was drinking but really it was about people strugling to survive glad you like it. Its one of my favorites. of course i love neil young too

[barbettemroe]

Neil Young, that's it!!!

[wolfgang8u]

[wolfgang8u]

thank you very much! this is a really heart felt song it was hard to record becuase i broke down in the middle of it in tears. But i pulled myself together in the end it turned into a great song. Its about the pains of life and love.
