Right outside this lazy summer home
You ain't got time to call your soul a critic, no
Right outside the lazy gate of winter's summer home
Wondering where the nuthatch winters
Wings a mile long

Just carried the bird away

Blue sky, sunshine
What a day to take a walk in the park
Ice cream, daydream
Till the sky becomes a blanket of stars
What a day for picking daisies
And lots of red balloons
And what a day for holdin' hands
And bein' with you
Lazy day
Just right for lovin' away
Lazy day
Made for strollin' a lane

You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there!"
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

Lord, I'm foolish to be here in the first place
I know some man gonna walk in and take my place
Ain't no way in the world, I'm going out that front door
'Cause there's a man down there, might be your man

I don't know

Spend my days with a woman unkind
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine


Made up my mind, make a new start
Goin' to California with an achin' in my heart


Someone told me there's a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair

She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
I knew, without askin', she was into the blues
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls

When I was just a little young boy
Papa said, "Son, you'll never get far"
I'll tell you the reason, if you wanna know
'Cause child of mine, there isn't really very

Far to go


Well, baby baby wants a gold diamond ring
Wants it more than most any old thing
Well when I get those jelly-roll blues
Why I go and get, anything in this world for you

 

RIP the GREAT Robert Hunter

 

Trivia note: Hunter denied allegations that he wrote songs while tripping, but he DID say that he wrote this song (Dupree's Diamond Blues") while drunk.

I know some things that you don't
I've done things that you won't

 

There's nothing like a trail of blood

To find your way back home

 

I was waiting for my hearse
What came next was so much worse

It took a funeral to make me feel alive

 

Just open your eyes, just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful

And the colours of the sea
Bind your eyes with trembling mermaids
And you touch the distant beaches
With tales of brave Ulysses
How his naked ears were tortured
By the sirens sweetly singing
For the sparkling waves are calling you
To kiss their white laced lips
