Houdini Blues
Oh no, don't you put me in that box You know what you can do with those locks Bet your life I'll come crawling out again You'll have to deal with me then You'll hear me on the wind I've been on the other side of the Blue Ridge Seen the Shenandoah rolling there I stepped off the mountains edge Just to climb the golden stair I seen the streets up there I been on the mount transfiguration Been there with my Ma and my Pa On the mountain of commandment I been handed down the law You should have seen what I saw I fell to the bottom of Thales' well Caught like a theif with a lamb You know these stars they can cast a spell I've been caught with red hands I've been caught with red hands I scaled the mountains, skiied the valleys I've done the highs and the lows SongtexteI don't feel like work today Hell I won't go Bess I won't go Just let me at their locks We should all be free Oh Bess, i swear I'll call When I'm free from me We should all be free Aus Songtexte Mania
