"Already Fried" lyrics
"Already Fried"
The whole pie was your piece
The fillin' your pride
Jivin' 'round the kitchen
Just carryin' on
No pies are coolin' on the window
Still empty inside
Your sorry's no good
The little ones already cried
One chicken took a lickin'
So many feathers to hide
And nobody woke you
All the breakfast is gone
Your belly's all stretched
Making noise, feeling bad
The rooster never crowed
He was already fried
We were born one day
Lived up 'til now
Calf in the field
Nest on the bough
One day for sure
If what's done is done
Do we pass on with what we've got
Or get back what we passed on
You've had your turn at the wheel
We've been long out of gas
The others are spent, boy
From pushing your ride
The next hill's are steepest
Better get down and behind
All got to push
To reach the other side
We were born one day
Lived up 'til now
Calf in the field
Nest on the bough
One day for sure
We'll know if what's done is done
We pass on with what we've got
Or get back what we passed on
We pass on with what we got
Or get back what passed on?
We pass on with what we got
Or just pass on?

The Band - "Up On Cripple Creek" When I get off of this mountain, you know where I want to go?
Straight down the Mississippi river, to the Gulf of Mexico
To Lake Charles, Louisiana, little Bessie, girl that I once knew
She told me...
Big Head Todd And The Monsters - "Bittersweet" A little light looks through her bedroom window.
She dances and I dream, she's not so far as she seems,
Of brighter meadows, melting sunsets,
Her hair blowing in the breeze.
And she can't see me...
Jerry Garcia Band - "Positively 4th Street" You got a lotta nerve
To say you are my friend
When I was down
You just stood there grinning
You got a lotta nerve
To say you gotta helping hand to lend
You just want to be on
The side that's...
The Black Crowes - "Wiser Time" No time left now for shame
Horizon behind me, no more pain
Windswept stars blink and smile
Another song, another mile
You read the line every time
Ask me about crime in my mind
Ask me why another...
Phish - "Farmhouse" Welcome this is a Farmhouse
We have cluster flies alas
And this time of year is bad
We are so very sorry,
There's little we can do
But swat them
She didn't beg oh, not enough
She didn't...
