[Bb] [G]
I want a risin', risin' night and day All the gold and silver bein' stolen away
Make your turn a-lookin' east and west From the dark room of his mind
He made to Kansas City, 12th Street and 5th Nothin' standin' there
I want a hill to wear
I want a risin' and the shacks a-slidin' down
Folks lose their possessions as folks now leavin' town
But the mason should get broken, is she hungin' on a wall?
Say you're dancin' with whom they tell you to, or you don't dance at all
It's tough out there
I want a hill to wear
I got a cravin' love for blazin' speed Got a hopped up Mustang Ford
Jumpin' to the wagon, love, throw your panties on the board
I can't write you poems and make a strong man lose his mind
I'm no pig without a wig, I hope you treat me kind
Things are breakin' up out there
I want a hill to wear
I want a risin' six inches above my head
Coffins droppin' in the street like balloons made out of lead
What I bought in the Vicksburg, don't know what I'm gonna do
Don't reach out for me, she say, can't you see I'm down with two
It's rough out there
I want a hill to wear
George Lewis told the Englishman, the Italian and the Jew
You can't open up your mind, boys, to ever conceivable porn and heme
They got Charles Darwin trapped out there on Highway 5
Judges to the high shelf, I want him dead or alive Either one
I want a hill
I want a hill to wear
Fat Hickory's a pretty bird, she rovers and she flies
I'm preachin' the word of God, I'm puttin' out your eyes
I asked Fat Natsy for something to eat, she said, take it off the shelf
As great as you are, man, you'll never be greater than yourself
I told her I didn't really care
I want a hill to wear
I get up in the morning, I believe the dust that grooms
Keepin' away from the women, I'm givin' them lots of room
Thunder rollin' over Clarksdale, everything left in blue
I just can't be happy, love, unless you're happy too
It's bad out there
I want a hill to wear
