Radical Blues Lyrics

Gold wrapper whirling

Church steeple spikes the sky

He's smoking his last cigarette

As cars go zooming by

His smoke hits cement

And he turns to go

But this feeling that he fought

like a fly he can't swat

He can't let it go

He can't let it go

Like a child without a home

Like a dog without a bone

Bad news in the paper

Bad news on the box

So he's roaming yeah he's roaming now

He just wants to talk

About disappearing grizzly bears

And diamonds in the Congo

But this feeling that he fought

Like a fly he can't swat

He can't let it go

He can't let it go

Like a child without a home

Like a dog without a bone

Tired of the mean streets

And all the urban sprawl

So he packed up his back-pack

To get away from it all

Like a salmon he roamed

But a hostel ain't a home

No a hostel ain't a home

No no no no no

A hostel ain't a home

He just wants a quiet life

Football in the front yard

A little baby and a wife

It can't be that hard

Green grass in the suburbs

Angels in the snow

But this feeling that he fought

Like a fly he can't swat

He can't let it go

He can't let it go

Like a child without a home

Like a dog without a bone

He can't let it go no

He can't he can't he can't he can't he can't he can't

He can't let it go
