Description
'The Drive' might just be the best tune here, as it starts with the sound of a needle landing on a record and moves into a cool blues sound highlighted by Dave Cofell’s harmonica.
Lyrics
I don't know how I keep going, yeah When the wagon slows Broke down, wooden wheel fallin' off On the side of the road I'm calling out screaming for the messenger To help me see The messenger come carrying an awful smile And a bottle for me He says, Take it, you'll be just fine Chorus But I don't wanna creep I don't wanna dig down to deep I'm alright I'm a liar I can't sleep I'm a stranger in this town Where I come from I've been down this road Down, down, down, down Down and numb Calling out screaming, Hallelujah, hey And taste the sea The salt on my lips don't stay, no But it'll set me free I said, I'll take it, I'll be just fine Chorus Now come ride with me I'll be, your driver in the passenger seat Cussing and spitting 'bout the other ones singing Silently, Silently And I know I won't right myself I'm better just to leave it alone Cover me down in the cold concrete Become the man of stone Go and just leave me alone I'm better as the man of stone I don't know how I keep going, yeah When the river runs dry And the shakes don't calm me down, no And the fever runs high I'm calling out, screaming for the messenger To come for me He stands up and shouts, "Calm down boy I'm gonna set you free" He says, Take it, you'll be just fine Chorus
