Truckin' (Live at Auditorium Theater, Chicago, IL, August 23, 1971) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

Truckin' got my chips cashed in

Keep truckin' like the do-dah man

Together more or less in line

Just keep truckin' on

Arrows of neon

And flashing marquees out on main street

Chicago new york

Detroit and it's all on the same street

Your typical city involved in a typical daydream

Hang it up and see what tomorrow brings

Dallas got a soft machine

Houston too close to new orleans

New yorks got the ways and means

But just won't let you be oh no

Most of the cast

That you meet on the streets speak of true love

Most of the time theyre sittin and cryin at home

One of these days they know they better get goin

Out of the door and down on the streets all alone

Truckin' like the do-dah man

Once told me you've got to play your hand

Sometimes your cards ain't worth a dime

If you don't layem down

Sometimes the lights all shinin on me

Other times I can barely see

Lately it occurs to me what a long

Strange trip it's been

What in the world ever became of sweet jane

She lost her sparkle

You know she isnt the same

Livin on reds vitamin c

And coc*ine

All a friend can say is ain't it a shame

Truckin' up to buffalo

Been thinkin you got to mellow slow

Takes time you pick a place to go

And just keep truckin' on

Sittin and starin out of the hotel window

Got a tip theyre gonna kick the door in again

I'd like to get some sleep before I travel

But if you got a warrant

I guess you're gonna come in

Busted down on bourbon street

Set up like a bowlin pin

Knocked down it gets to wearin thin

They just won't let you be oh no

You're sick of hangin around and you'd like to travel

Get tired of travelin and you want to settle down

I guess they can't revoke your soul for tryin

Get out of the door and light out and look all around

Sometimes the lights all shinin on me

Other times I can barely see

Lately it occurs to me what a long

Strange trip it's been

Truckin' I'm a goin home

Wo wo baby back where I belong

Back home sit down and patch my bones

And get back truckin' on

Now can get back truckin' home

Now can get back truckin' home

Now can get back truckin' home

Get back truckin' home

Get back truckin' home

Get back truckin' home

Get back truckin' home

Truckin'' I'm a goin' home

Wo wo baby back where I belong

Back home sit down and patch my bones

And get back truckin'' on

Been there get back truckin'' on

Been there get back truckin'' on

Been there get back truckin'' on

Get back truckin'' on

Get back truckin'' on

Get back truckin'' on

Get back truckin'' on
