What Are The Lyrics For Fly Back Home By John Hiatt & the Goners?
Saw a red tailed hawk eatin' road kill
Said, "Man, what happened to your dignity?" He said, "Subdivisions have taken my home There's no more pray to eat" I said, "Where we gonna live?" He said, "Anywhere you want to, I guess All you creatures walkin' upright 'round here Well, you've really made a mess" I wish we both could fly back home To the green fields of our youth Where friends and family set the tone With the hardcore language of the truth I know times bent on destruction The past is over every day I wish we both could fly back home But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away An owl swooped down As I was drivin' my pickup through the creek He said, "I was only tryin' to scare ya But instead you scared the hell right out of me" With three hundred and forty-five houses A locking differential and four-wheel drive I guess you were livin' large there, country boy I was just tryin' to survive I wish we both could fly back home To the green fields of our youth Where friends and family set the tone With the hardcore language of the truth I know times bent on destruction The past is over every day I wish we both could fly back home But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away, fly away There was a rattlesnake up on the road I ran him over and over 'til he died Then his ghost rose up And curled around this fear I hold inside And he flew on off to heaven As I sat there in my instrument of death I had to think what I was doin' I had to think just to draw another breath I wish we both could fly back home To the green fields of our youth Where friends and family set the tone With the hardcore language of the truth I know times bent on destruction The past is over every day I wish we both could fly back home But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away I wish we both could fly back home But we can't, so I guess I'll just fly away |
