Truckin' (Live at the Spectrum, Philadelphia 4/6/82) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

Truckin got my chips cashed in

Keep truckin like the do-dah man

Together more or less in line

Just keep truckin on

Arrows of neon and flashing

Marquees out on main street

Chicago new york

Detroit and its all on the same street

Your typical city involved in a typical daydream

Hang it up and see what tomorrow brings

Dallas got a soft machine;

Houston too close to new orleans;

New yorks got the ways and means;

But just won't let you be oh no

Most of the time theyre sittin

And cryin at home

One of these days they know

They better get goin

Out of the door and down

On the streets all alone

Truckin like the do-dah man

Once told me you've got to play your hand

Sometimes your cards ain't worth a dime

If you don't layem down

Sometimes the lights all shinin on me;

Other times I can barely see

Lately it occurs to me what a long

Strange trip its been

What in the world ever became of sweet jane

She lost her sparkle you know she isn't the same

Livin on reds vitamin c and coc*ine

All of friend can say is ain't it a shame

Truckin up to buffalo been thinkin

You got to mellow slow

Takes time you pick a place to go

And just keep truckin on

Sittin and starin out of the hotel window

Got a tip they're gonna kick the door in again

I'd like to get some sleep before I travel

But if you got a warrant

I guess you're gonna come in

Busted down on bourbon street set up

Like a bowlin pin

Knocked down it gets to wearin thin

They just won't let you be oh no

You're sick of hangin around

And you'd like to travel;

Get tired of travelin and

You want to settle down

I guess they can't revoke your soul for tryin

Get out of the door and

Light out and look all around

Sometimes the lights all shinin on me;

Other times I can barely see

Lately it occurs to me what a long

Strange trip it's been

Truckin I'm a goin home whoa whoa baby

Back where I belong

Back home sit down and patch my bones

And get back truckin' on

Get back truckin' on

Get back truckin' on

Get back truckin' on

Get back truckin' on

Get back truckin' on

Get back truckin' on

Get back truckin' on
