Subterranean Homesick Blues

Dedicated To The Fly
A Native Oregonian Who Now Spends His Days In The Mojave Desert thinking of water.



Lyrics To Sing While Contemplating Water
with a big thanks to Bob Dylan

Johnny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It's somethin you did
God knows when
But youre doin it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap
In the big pen
Wants eleven dollar bills
You only got ten

Whoohoo! Water!

The pump don't work
cause the vandals took the handles


Discouraging, huh?
