Walkabouts - Inauguration Day lyrics

rate me

I'm up to my neck

I'm up to my neck

In the mud of inauguration day

In the mud of inauguration day

They say it's one in fifty years

They say it's one in fifty years

That stormthat blew my dog away

That stormthat blew my dog away

And they say the road has been washed out

And they say the road has been washed out

From rockport to concrete

From rockport to concrete

And all the trees are falling down

And all the trees are falling down

And nowheaven's at my feet

And nowheaven's at my feet

My wishes do my beggin' for me

My wishes do my beggin' for me

And like a beggar they do [learn / laugh]

And like a beggar they do [learn / laugh]

Frozen fingers touch my face

Frozen fingers touch my face

They tie a blindfold 'round my eyes

They tie a blindfold 'round my eyes

And I'm stuck at this roadblock

And I'm stuck at this roadblock

Chasing fog and smoke

Chasing fog and smoke

I guess the price of doing thhat was just

I guess the price of doing thhat was just

Another killing joke

Another killing joke

Wash me down

Wash me down

Wash me down

Wash me down

Sing for me now

Sing for me now

Sing for me now

Sing for me now

Wash me from the hillside

Wash me from the hillside

And wash me from the dirt

And wash me from the dirt

Wash me from your worldly claims

Wash me from your worldly claims

And wash mewash me from your hurt

And wash mewash me from your hurt

'cause I'm up to my neck

'cause I'm up to my neck

In the mud of inauguration day

In the mud of inauguration day
