Down the Dream (Live)

[Verse 1]
I stopped to lean
At the entrance to the highway
On a leg of an underpass
And it was there that George caught up with me
We drank his pint of freedom
Down the dream

[Verse 2]
I invest my soul in company
I bet the big exchange
First of all for love of thee and
Seconal deranged
There oughta be somethin' to fall back on
Like a knife or a career
Ooh, heavy is a heart that bears a started life
In the dyin' time of year
Oh, in the dyin' time of year

[Bridge]
Set my pots and plans on the landlord's stove
Was drove down through the Texas heat
Threw my love out in the street

[Verse 3]
George is colored and I'm white
But George could go for me
George was wonderin' if I might
Go for him
Go to Louisiana
Rockin' a banjo on my knee
After a man that said he'd go for me
George, I'm all gone down the dream
George, I'm all gone down the dream
George, I'm all gone down the dream

[Outro]
Thank you very much.
