Píseň: Highway Child
I wasn't born lookin' back, I can't tell white from black Kesey next to me now darling, straighter than a railroad track I've been so high, my mind was dry I rent it out to farmers on the midnight ride That ain't all I ain't even got me a congressman I can call All right I seen 'em dumpin' garbage, in my rivers and lakes I seen 'em send up John Sinclair, you know Two joints is all it takes Then suddenly I was in a tree And dogs were barking up at me can't you see I'm so damn apethetic, I can't believe I'm free As the senator he signs the bills you know And he's telling us which way we have to go Think it's time we got together and declared When you see them coming and you get so scared Rain is falling down, but you know I'm feeling fine I think I'll watch the tv set, let America steal my mind But you know I'm cool, Momma had a rule She didn't raise no fool to be true to someone else I'm runnin' down that highway child I'm gonna be myself Highway child Highway child
