You want to bring the guitar
down a little bit in the monitor?
And my voice too, actually.
You can bring it down a little bit.
I said I'd do this song here for a friend.
Now old Lee told me
That I'm a fool
So I walked on down the road a mile
and went to a house that brings a smile,
sat upon my grandpa's knee,
and what do you think he said to me?
When you awake,
you will remember everything.
You will be hanging on a string,
yes you will.
When you believe,
you will relieve the only soul
that you were born with
to grow old and never know
now ole showed me the fork in
the road she said take to your left
go straight to your right
an d use your days and save your nights
be careful where you step
and watch what you eat
you sleep with a light and
you've got a beat
When you awake,
you will remember everything
You will be hanging on a string,
oh yes you will
When you believe,
you will relieve the only soul
That you were born with
to grow old and never know
Now all they told me is
a mean old world,
oh streets don't greet you
yes it's true
but what am I supposed to do
read the writing on the wall
I read it when I was very small
when you wake
you will remember everything
you will be hanging on a string
oh yes you will
when you believe
you will relieve the only soul
that you were born with
to grow old and never know.
Well I wash my hands in my water,
I've got a date with the
captain's daughter.
You can go and tell your brother,
we're sure gonna love one another,
oh it's okay.
You might be right, you might be wrong,
no I won't worry all night long.
Well the snow's gonna come
in the frost gonna bite
and my old car froze up last night
ain't no reason to hang my head
I could wake up in the morning dead
oh no that wouldn't do
and if I thought it would do any
good
