lirik lagu ashgrove – dave alvin

(blue h-rn toad music, bmi)
well when i was a young boy
i used to slip away
down to the ashgrove
to hear the old blues men play
there was big joe and lightninâ?
and reverend gary too
well iâ? d sit and stare and dream
of doinâ? what they could do.
well itâ? s been thirty years since the ashgrove burned down
and iâ? m out on this highway travelinâ? town to town
tryinâ? to make a livinâ?
tryinâ? to pay the rent
tryinâ? to figure out where my life went.
i wanna go back to the ashgrove
thatâ? s where i come from
i wanna go back to the ashgrove
thatâ? s where i belong.
well you donâ? t have to go searchinâ?
pretend to put on airs
â? cause the blues are gonna find you someday, somewhere
now my motherâ? s gone
now my fatherâ? s gone
and all the old blues men have all p-ssed on
and iâ? m out on this highway travelinâ? town to town
settinâ? up my gear and then iâ? m tearinâ? it down
turninâ? up my guitar
standinâ? on the stage
iâ? m just tryinâ? to raise the ghosts up out of their graves.
i wanna go back to the ashgrove
thatâ? s where i come from
yeah i wanna go back to the ashgrove
thatâ? s where i belong.
well i canâ? t say i been all sinner
canâ? t say i been all saint
iâ? ve done some good deeds and iâ? ve made big mistakes
i been in and out of love
said words i regret
i been drunk, been sober
smoked too many cigarettes
and iâ? m out on this highway travelinâ? town to town
and the news on the radio just brings me down
intolerance and fear
ignorance and lies
itâ? s the same old same old i heard a million times
and iâ? m thinkinâ? of friends and lovers
and how they come and go
like look-alike houses on the side of the road
full of everyday people tryinâ? to get ahead
tryinâ? to find a reason just to get out of bed
â? cause we all need somethinâ? just to get us through
well iâ? m gonna play the blues tonight man
â? cause thatâ? s what i do.
iâ? m goinâ? back to the ashgrove
thatâ? s where i come from
iâ? m goinâ? back to the ashgrove
thatâ? s where i belong.
