Touch of Grey

Time for another song. This one is from one of my favorite bands that helped shape me into the person that I am today and gave me a reason to travel to parts unknown.

'Touch Of Grey' by the Grateful Dead

Must be getting early

Clocks are running late

Faint light of the morning sky

looks so phony

Dawn is breaking everywhere

Light a candle, curse the glare

Draw the curtains,

I don't care, cuz

It's alright

I will get by

I will get by

I will get by

I will survive

I see you've got your fist out

Say your piece and get out

Yes I get the gist of it,

butIt's alright

Sorry that you feel that way

The only there is to say:

Every silver lining's

got a touch of grey

I will get by

I will get by

I will get by

I will survive

It's a lesson to me

The eagles and the beggars and the seas

The ABC's we all must face

Try to keep a little grace

It's a lesson to me

The deltas and the east and the freeze

The ABC's we all think of

And try to win a little love

I know the rent is in arrears

The dog has not been fed in years

It's even worse than it appears,

butIt's alright

Cows giving kerosene

Kid can't read at seventeen

The words he knows are all obscene,

butIt's alright

I will get by

I will get by

I will get by

I will survive

The shoe is on the hand that fits.

There's really nothing much to it

Whistle through your teeth and spit,

cuzIt's alright

Oh well, a touch of grey

Kinda suits you anyway

And that was all I had to say,

andIt's alright

I will get by

I will get by

I will get by

I will survive
