Kicking Up The Dust
Asked the doctor what was wrong with me
He said, “Son, the world don’t give a shit
You’d better learn to live your life carefree
Or learn to deal with it”
So I sold my dreams just to pay the rent
Borrowed from my folks and my friends
I meant to pay them back but boy I’m spent
With just this guitar in my hand
Take a breath and sigh
Tears will fill your eyes
Sailing on the endless sea of time
Take a look outside
Show me what you find
Kicking up the endless dust in time
Remember what the First Amendment said
Why don’t you give it one more try
So I wrote a letter to the president
Still waiting his reply
So I wrote my message out for all to see
In letters six foot tall
And now I think the feds are on to me
‘Cause the writing’s on the wall
Say the writing’s on the wall
Take a breath and sigh
Tears will fill your eyes
Sailing on the endless sea of time
Take a look outside
Show me what you find
Kicking up the endless dust in time
Today is just another day
Could be the last day of my life
A grain of sand is blown across the shore
Blowing off the endless sea of time
Nothing’s forever
Picking on the endless dust in time
Never knowing if whether
Blowing off the endless sea of time
If we’ll be together
Blowing off the endless dust in time
I love you forever
Today is just another day
Could be the last day of my life
A grain of sand is blown across the shore
Today is just another day
Could be the last day of my life
A grain of sand is blown across the shore
