Lyrics
Hey hows the heatwave
Hey hows the dream
Here its the same old same old
the same as it's always been
I couldn'r do what you're doing
I blame the roots of my family tree
You've got a head like a sailor
Sail on for me
Here's to ichy feet and the funny road
And hanging on in there by the tips of your soul
If you're on the ropes and you'r e fighting back
throw one for me.
Old friends might laugh if they saw you
You're life in a suitcase and you're love in a song
all for two shows a month in the village
trying to belong
So hang in there and I'll say that I knew you
I'll flicker my eyes and say I wa your muse
You can fly me first clas to the garden
We'll drink to old blues
(C)
Here's to ichy feet and the funny road
And hanging on in there by the tips of your soul
If you're on the ropes and you'r e fighting back
throw one for me
Here's to ichy feet and the funny road.
You're happy taking part and secretly wanting gold.
If you're on the ropes and you're fighting back.
Throw one for me.
