Lyrics
The Ketchum Hollow Trail
Kickin' a stone down The Ketchum Hollow Trail
Got a ship in the desert, set to set sail
I got water comin' in from an unknown source
I got a fine lookin' saddle but I got no horse
Kickin' a stone down The Ketchum Hollow Trail
Hopin' I might happen on the holy grail
Lookin' fer somebody lookin' fer somebody like me
But I never much care for what I see
Kickin' a stone down The Ketchum Hollow Trail
The cow needs milkin' but I got no pail
Got a bottle o' hooch that I can't uncork
Made a real nice meal but I got no fork
Kickin' a stone down The Ketchum Hollow Trail
I'd talk to a preacher but they're all in jail
I got money in the bank that I can't withdraw
Got a hammer and some nails, but I got no saw
Kickin' a stone down The Ketchum Hollow Trail
Now that I'm hungry the bread's gone stale
I always seem to figure out where I wanna be
When I'm somewhere else and I can't break free
When I was young I hardly had a half a lick of sense
But I had plenty of fight and was quite intense
Why are we such damn fools when we're in our prime?
(Feels like I'm kickin' this stone such a mother long time)
