The Jayhawks - High Water Blues lyrics

Your rating:

On a nice spring day
I found a cage in the yard
It was just that way
I found a cage in the yard

I was thinking back about all the times
I was stuck in the basement with the blues on my mind
I was thinking back about all the times
I was stuck in the basement with the blues on my mind

High water, high water, high water blues
High water, high water, high water blues

Rusty locks and chains
Endless miles of tar
All the keys that I made
Never fit in the car

I was reeling and I couldn't be found
Like a hammer hits a nail, I was bent upside down
I was reeling and I couldn't be found
Like a hammer hits a nail, I was bent upside down

High water, high water, high water blues
High water, high water, high water blues

Take it on the chin...

Broken bottles of disgrace
Meets an old metal wire
Across the creek I wade
I used an old black tire

All my pictures were locked up in a trunk
When the water came up, it was just my bad luck
All my pictures were locked up in a trunk
When the water came up, it was just my bad luck

High water, high water, high water blues
High water, high water, high water blues

Take it on the chin...
