Carry on my wayward son
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

 

Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion
I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreamin', I can hear them say

Strap me in, tie me down, and roll me a bone
I'm gettin' on an airplane, and I'm flyin' home
Strap me in, tie me down, I'm learning to fly
Travel cross the country, I get too ****in' high

Some gal told me today
"Boy you're wasting your life away"
Said "It's a bad way you spend your time
"Boy you're never gonna make a dime"

I like to sleep late in the morning
I don't like to wear no shoes
Make love to the women
While I'm living
Get drunk from a bottle of booze

People say I'm no good and crazy as a loon
'Cause I get stoned in the morning
And get drunk in the afternoon
Kinda like my old blue tick hound
I like to lay around in the shade
And I ain't got no money but I damn sure got it made

Well, they'll stone you when you're trying to be so good
They'll stone you just like they said they would
They'll stone you when you're trying to go home
And they'll stone you when you're there all alone
But I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned

Half a mile from the county fair, and the rain came pouring down

Me and Billy were standing there, we had a silver half of crown

Our arms are full of fishing rods, we had the tackle on our backs

We just stood there getting wet, with our backs against the fence.

 

Oh the water

Oh the water

Oh the water,

I hope it don't rain all day

 

It stoned me to my soul

It stoned me just like jelly roll,

Well it stoned me

Ooh, I go swimming, swimming in the water 
Swimming in the river, swimming in the sea 
I go swimming 
I go swimming, swimming in the water 
Swimming in the pool, swimming is cool 
I go swimming 
 
The sun is burning, I am yearning 
For the water flow (water flow) 
Next to my skin I, like to begin a 
water flow (water flow) 
Letting off steam I float in a dream, 
I can't let go (can't let go) 
Follow my wishes, follow the fishes 
Down below (down below) 
I go swimming

I feed from the bottom, you feed from the top
I live upon morsels you happen to drop
And coffee that somehow leaks out of your cup
If nothing comes down then I'm forced to swim up


On the way upwards, the colors come back
But all along the bottom is blue, grey, and black
The darkness is cold and perception goes wrong
And the night seems to go on incredibly long

Blue on blue, heartache on heartache
Blue on blue now that we are through
Blue on blue, heartache on heartache
And I find I can't get over losing you

 

I walk along the street we used to walk
Two by two, lovers pass
And as they're passing by, I could die
'Cause you're not here with me
Now the trees are bare
There's sadness in the air
And I'm as blue as I can be

She said don't worry, baby
I'll do my own crying
I'm a big girl now
Now I'm gonna be okay
Yes, I'll find a new way of living
You know I will


And you lie there without sleeping
And you stare at your wall
And you realize you're not weeping
You don't need her anymore

Well it's been building up inside of me
For oh I don't know how long
I don't know why
But I keep thinking
Something's bound to go wrong

 

But she looks in my eyes
And makes me realize
And she says "don't worry, baby"
Don't worry, baby
Don't worry, baby
Everything will turn out alright

Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be alright!

Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Perch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', "This is my message to you."

There she stood in the street
Smiling from her head to her feet
I said hey, what is this
Now baby, maybe she's in need of a kiss
I said hey, what's your name baby
Maybe we can see things the same
Now don't you wait or hesitate
Let's move before they raise the parking rate
 

All right now baby, it's all right now
All right now baby, it's all right now

When the whistle blows
Girl, I'm down the street
I'm home, I'm out of my work clothes
When I'm out in the street, oh oh oh oh oh
I walk the way I want to walk
When I'm out in the street, oh oh oh oh oh
I talk the way I want to talk

There she was just a-walkin' down the street, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
Snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
She looked good (looked good), she looked fine (looked fine)
She looked good, she looked fine and I nearly lost my mind
