Original Source: | LyricWiki |
Well the first days are the hardest days don't you worry any more. 'cause when life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door. Think this through with me; let me know your mind Whoa, oh, what I want to know is are you kind? It's a buck dancer's choice my friend Better take my advice You know all the rules by now And the fire from the ice Will you come with me Won't you come with me Whoa oh, what I want to know is Will you come with me? God damn! well I declare Have you seen the like Their walls are built of cannon balls Their motto is "don't tread on me" Come hear Uncle John's Band Playing to the tide Come with me or go alone He's come to take his children home It's the same story the crow told me It's the only one he knows Like the morning sun you come And like the wind you go Ain't no time to hate Barely time to wait Whoa oh, what I want to know is Where does the time go? I live in a silver mine And I call it Beggar's Tomb I got me a violin And I beg you call the tune Anybody's choice I can hear your voice Whoa oh, what I want to know is: How does the song go? Come hear Uncle John's Band By the river side Got some things to talk about Here beside the rising tide Come hear Uncle John's Band Playing to the tide Come along or go alone He's come to take his children home --Repeat last-- |
