SINGER: Grateful Dead

SONG:Uncle John�s Band

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.
