The Humboldt County Waltz

Well, I've been too tired to drink myself to sleep
I haven't been to bed yet
Haven't got my 40 winks
The Man looks at me and says
"Hey boy, aren't you a little young for this line?"
I said, no sir, I think it's about time

The one thing that I really need is stash like Willie's and some room to breath
The things to life that I really like is when one will do and two is oh so nice

I've been working my fingers to the bone
I ain't got no one to help me
I've been going this all alone
And I know that Death is out there
From him I will not hide
When I see him coming
I'm gonna take him for a ride

The one thing that I really need is stash like Willie's and some room to breath
The things to life that I really like is when one will do and two is oh so nice

Thank God for The Dead and the way they played to the sunset
We shouted just because we were there
The trees responded
They would not sit still
