Uncle John’s Band - Grateful Dead

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
Woh 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 ice
Will you come with me won't you come with me
Woh oh what I want to know will you come with me
Goddamn well I declare have you seen the like
Their walls are built of cannonballs
Their motto is don't tread on me
Come hear Uncle John's band playing to the tide
Got some things to talk about here beside the rising tide
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
Woh 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
Woh oh what I want to know how does the song go
Come hear the 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
Woh 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
