"Tether" lyrics

"Tether"

We took all the flags down and now
You can watch the kids hit the tetherball 'round
We took all the flags down and now
Gonna find me a hill and just lay on down

I seen the crows down in the street
I ain't gonna worry about what I eat
I seen the crows in the street
I'm gonna head on down, see who I meet

I seen a hole in a chain-link fence
I'm gonna find me a place to rest
I seen a hole down in the fence
I'm gonna run until my head makes sense

I feel the gun between my teeth
I'm gonna die standing on my feet
I taste the gun between my teeth
Either him or me is gonna set me free

We took all the flags down and now
You can watch the kids hit the tetherball 'round
We took all the flags down and now
Gonna find me a hill and just lay on down
