New Day Dawn
Ain't no right ain't no wrong
When you sit and watch a new day dawn
Ain't no wrong ain't no right
Been sittin' since the dark of night
Walked myself to the edge of town
Made damn sure no one follow me down
Yes and to keep myself a little company
Well I got a little hipper from the whiskey family
But it don't
No it don't
Yes it don't
Matter much now anyway
All alone
All alone
One and only
Let me get my thinking straight
Just cut the cable and the TV screen
Just a rabid dog barking back at me
So many voices chiming through my head
Can't put a face to all the words just said
Get more listening to the wind and rain
Or the rumble of a diesel train
Cause a mans a man, a fact's a fact
Those are lies and we can't be lied to like that
But it don't
No it don't
Yes it don't
Matter much now anyway
All alone
All alone
One and only
Let me get my thinking straight
Can't tell a lie through a song
Expect folks to listen all that long
Guitar note catch a breeze and off it goes
Who's going to catch them I don't know
Over top a voice gonna hit that note
You know it's coming from a bluesman's throat
Thats my version of a TV screen
You see it doesn't have to be all obscene
But it don't
No it don't
Yes it don't
Matter much now anyway
All alone
All alone
One and only
Let me get my thinking straight
When you sit and watch a new day dawn
Ain't no wrong ain't no right
Been sittin' since the dark of night
Walked myself to the edge of town
Made damn sure no one follow me down
Yes and to keep myself a little company
Well I got a little hipper from the whiskey family
But it don't
No it don't
Yes it don't
Matter much now anyway
All alone
All alone
One and only
Let me get my thinking straight
Just cut the cable and the TV screen
Just a rabid dog barking back at me
So many voices chiming through my head
Can't put a face to all the words just said
Get more listening to the wind and rain
Or the rumble of a diesel train
Cause a mans a man, a fact's a fact
Those are lies and we can't be lied to like that
But it don't
No it don't
Yes it don't
Matter much now anyway
All alone
All alone
One and only
Let me get my thinking straight
Can't tell a lie through a song
Expect folks to listen all that long
Guitar note catch a breeze and off it goes
Who's going to catch them I don't know
Over top a voice gonna hit that note
You know it's coming from a bluesman's throat
Thats my version of a TV screen
You see it doesn't have to be all obscene
But it don't
No it don't
Yes it don't
Matter much now anyway
All alone
All alone
One and only
Let me get my thinking straight
