Grateful Dead

done ego tripping at the gates of hell...daddy's been working that midnight shift.... peace

Totes, I was listening to that song on repeat yesterday!!! The less we say about it the better we'll make it up as we go along!

If you go down to the woods todayYou're sure of a big surprise If you go down to the woods today You better go in disguise For every bear that ever there was Will gather there for certain because Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic Every teddy bear who's been good Is sure of a treat today There's lots of marvelous things to eat And wonderful games to play Beneath the trees, where nobody sees They'll hide and seek as long as they please 'Cause that's the way the teddy bears have their picnic Picnic time for teddy bears The little teddy bears are having a lovely time today Watch them, catch them unawares And see them picnic on their holiday See them gaily gad about They love, to play and shout, they never have any cares At six o'clock their mommies and daddies Will take them home to bed Because they're tired little teddy bears If you go down in the woods today You better not go alone It's lovely down in the woods today But safer to stay at home For every bear that ever there was Will gather there together because Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic

...it's a guitarists worst nightmare. Being stuck on bass, because no one else would do it. There are a plethora of bassist jokes out there, but I can't think of a single note... :-)

Love that album, very psychedelic! You're so very lonely, your 2000 light years from home.

Crossed the line Mr. Mayor...k you're out and Wolfgang aka Scottsomoxoa is in....had your chance... I get backstage and get to see who's body is really a wonderland... Sleep is overrated....and I'm running on fumes.....

Get some rest rgr, for you are entering the Gates of Delirium (i.e. the SD thread) Or in this case maybe you are exiting, sometimes it's hard to tell whether we are coming or going.

Summer's here, I'm for that. Got my rubber sandals, got my straw hat.Got my cold beer, I'm just glad that I'm here. Summer's here, that suits me fine. It may rain today but I don't mind. It's my favorite time of the year and I'm glad that I'm here. Old man wintertime, he goes so slow. It's ten degrees below, you know. You can take your ice and snow and let my balmy breezes blow. Yeah, the water's cold but I've been in. Baby, lose the laundry and jump on in. I mean all God's children got skin and it's summer again. Old man wintertime, he goes so slow. It's ten degrees below, you know. You can take your ice and snow and let my balmy breezes blow. Summer's here, I'm for that. Got my rubber sandals, got my straw hat. Drinking cold beer, man, I'm just glad that I'm here. It's my favorite time of the year and I'm glad that I'm here, yeah. And me n Warren....we will sleep when we're dead....

If you are in the area, tonight Seldom Scene, tomorrow night Peter Rowan, good times for all.

The Northern lights visible here tonight....in da Buff.... The northern lights are in my mind They guide me back to you The northern lights are in my eyes They guide me back to you Desination outward bound I turn to see the northern lights behind the wing Horizons seem to beckon me Learned how to cry too young So now I live to sing The northern lights are in my mind They guide me back to you Horizons seem to beckon me Learned how to cry too young So now I live to sing Though it's hard away from you Travelling roads and just passing through It's not for money and it's not for fame I just can't explain, sometimes it's lonely Marking the space between the days Early hours pass away I sing to you of northern lights I sing for you of northern nights Past or future, here or there Shelter comes in words from you, so talk to me I hear your voice, it comforts me In morning dreams I take your hand You walk with me The northern lights are in my mind They guide me back to you Peace enfolds the still night air Home again I look for you and find you there Desintation homeward now Take the easy way, bring me down Making the hard way now I see Hard to be really free, I'm missing you near me Marking the space between the days Early hours pass away I sing to you of northern lights I sing for you of northern nights The northern lights are in my mind They guide me back to you The northern nights are in my eyes They guide me back to you

good morning to you all , just wanting to say I awoke this morning think where has the time gone. When I first heard of ftw I had to go some way some how. I fretted that I would not get tickets I sat and waited for an email but none came . My friend got one and I still had not. Late before bed I check for one last time , nothing , disappointed I laid in bed. At 5 am I checked again and there it was the miracle .I found a bus to ride with a bunch of merry pranksters drinking coffee , herding cats , polishing rails , and singing songs .We had nothing to eat but the talk of pie , cookies , and deep dish pizza . It been fun on this bus but I been informed we need to park it for a couple days refuel , and stretch are legs . Then on to chitown , may each of you enjoy the stop over , dance till you drop , and smile to your face hurts .Don't worry we will get this bus back on the road and in to town if the creek don't rise and gob is willing . Our driver is the best , and when he busy we have many capable pranksters on board to take the wheel and keep on trucking

Glad to be on board and ready to travel come what may! Good tunes as always here on KDED. Coffee and cigarettes go together like peas and carrots Too bad cigs cause cancer though, had to quit but actually still miss it sometimes. Have you seen the movie coffee and cigarettes? Damn Bill Murray!!!!

Yes I did indeed, and Bill Murray rocks.... Very good at what he does....still prefer what about Bob..... 2 kinds of people in the world, those that love Neil Diamond and those that hate him.... I love Neil Diamond....but I still miss Jerry..... and the acceptable and customary response here at Deadheads Anonymous is?

I'm currently on my third cup.... At work till quittin time/back office kind of day If you dont like my fire then dont come around cause I'm gonna burn one down!

I like you kid... You got spunk....I like spunk.... Btw, you may be taking the wheel here in awhile.... Stanley's been up all night and needs a cat nap.... And I'm still doing a head count trying to figure out who we lost back there....

I know. I miss Jerry too! But we're gonna see Bob and the gang!

Holly was a race car driver.... I drive like I'm from St. Louis, dont know if you've ever heard about us but....Show Me the Gas!!!!!

A quick learn....like that too.... now on the Commander Cody show a little ditty to cut a rug..... Sarge, on three.... Get out of my way, you small town clown This country boy has come to town With a stolen car I went to Omaha I'm doing my best to stay away from the law But when they finally caught me, here's what they done Threw me in jail for having too much fun Too much fun, that's news to me Too much fun, there must be A whole lotta things that I never done But I ain't never had too much fun She was only seventeen, she was new to L.A. And I was more than willing to show her the way We cruised up Sunset and back down Vine I liked hers and she liked mine But when her daddy caught me, he said look here son You're going to jail for having too much fun Get out of my way, you small town hicks This country boy is out for kicks Stole a car, drove to Kalamazoo I met a gal, she was ugly too When they finally caught me, here's what they done Jail... too much fun Every story's got a moral and mine does too It ain't nobody's business whatever you do All of us got weird notions of time The Lord only knows that I sure got mine I'm public enemy number one All because I wanna have too much fun Oh my....Holly at the wheel.....take it sister.... You know this space is getting hot!

Well they arrested me and put me in jailand I called my pappy to make my bail and he said Holly, you're gonna drive me to Drinkin if you dont stop drivin that HOT ROD LINCOLN!

SSIA.... I'm goin out back a second.... Stella, move them feet....thanks... I'm sittin alone, Saturday night, watching the Late Late Show A bottle of wine, some cigarettes, I got no place to go Well, I saw your other man today, he was wearing my brand new shoes And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too Well, I met my old friend Bob today from up in Bowling Green He had the prettiest little gal that I'd ever seen But I couldn't hide my tears at all 'cause she looked just like you And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too Now everybody tells me there's other ways to get high They don't seem to understand, I'm too far gone to try Now these lonely memories, they're all I can't lose And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too Well, my dog died just yesterday and left me all alone The finance company dropped by today and repossessed my home That's just a drop in the bucket compared to losing you And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too Got the down to seeds and stems again blues

Bob teaches us all we need to know about ourselves..."the simplest way to put it is, I have problems..." That whole movie is everything. I'm going to put my headphones on and watch it from the back here, is that okay? It's a bed coffee kind of morning anyway. One of my mothers went on a trek in Nepal and every morning the sherpas would bring her Bed Tea. BED TEA! Is that not the best? I tried to be good and was a tea-in-the-morning kind of gal for a lot of years. I will be again sometime, when the first outside-task of the day is working in the garden... until then, java in my cup! I like the feeling back here anyhow. Holly at the wheel. Sarge keeping an eye out for bumps. Everyone else singing, mumbling, or snoring away. Perfect way to step into the day. Bed Coffee.

Hey morning Stellz..... Philz on my doorstep....should have a pot of Silken Splendor on soon.... Hit it Pupper.... She keeps Moët et Chandon In her pretty cabinet 'Let them eat cake,' she says Just like Marie Antoinette A built-in remedy For Kruschev and Kennedy At anytime an invitation You can't decline Caviar and cigarettes Well versed in etiquette Extraordinarily nice She's a Killer Queen Gunpowder, gelatine Dynamite with a laser beam Guaranteed to blow your mind Anytime Recommended at the price Insatiable an appetite Wanna try? To avoid complications She never kept the same address In conversation She spoke just like a baroness Met a man from China Went down to Geisha Minah Then again incidentally If you're that way inclined Perfume came naturally from Paris For cars she couldn't care less Fastidious and precise She's a Killer Queen Gunpowder, gelatine Dynamite with a laser beam Guaranteed to blow your mind Anytime Drop of a hat she's as willing as Playful as a pussy cat Then momentarily out of action Temporarily out of gas To absolutely drive you wild, wild.. She's all out to get you She's a Killer Queen Gunpowder, gelatine Dynamite with a laser beam Guaranteed to blow your mind Anytime Recommended at the price Insatiable an appetite Wanna try? You wanna try...

for Commander Cody. I'll bet at least 88% of us know what that's like. Every last thing... but these are better days. We have a place to be and Holly is gonna get us there. Uncle Rrrgrrr, did you figure out who bounced out the back? Maybe it was just that extra luggage we don't need no how - Bobloblaw's gonna teach us all how to travel light. Best for us, gas mileage, running from windows and this gorgeous planet. Be the light. But give me coffee first. <3

it only took about 18hrs for our tickets to come through fedex totally worth express shipping!

Goin hundred miles per hour With your radio on! with your radio on! Road runner road runner

speechless again..... feels like I'm on the 3:10 to Yuma..... you are a worthy dus briver.... Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down I went right home and I went to bed I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my head Got up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun Took a shot of cocaine and away I run Made a good run but I run too slow They overtook me down in Juarez, Mexico Late in the hot joints takin' the pills In walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown You're the dirty heck that shot your woman down Said yes, oh yes my name is Willy Lee If you've got a warrant just a-read it to me Shot her down because she made me slow I thought I was her daddy but she had five more When I was arrested I was dressed in black They put me on a train and they took me back Had no friend for to go my bail They slapped my dried up carcass in that county jail Early next mornin' bout a half past nine I spied the sheriff coming down the line Up then he coughed as he cleared his throat He said, "Come on you dirty heck into that district court" Into the courtroom my trial began Where I was handled by twelve honest men Just before the jury started out I saw that little judge commence to look about In about five minutes in walked the man Holding the verdict in his right hand The verdict read in the first degree I hollered, "Lawdy Lawdy, have mercy on me" The judge he smiled as he picked up his pen 99 years in the Folsom pen 99 years underneath that ground I can't forget the day I shot that bad bitch down Come on you've gotta listen unto me Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be

Bang bang he shot me down bang bang I hit the ground Bang Bang That mournful sound Bang Bang My baby shot me down.

Be on my side,I'll be on your side, baby There is no reason for you to hide It's so hard for me staying here all alone When you could be taking me for a ride. Yeah, she could drag me over the rainbow, send me away Down by the river I shot my baby Down by the river, Dead, oh, shot her dead. You take my hand, I'll take your hand Together we may get away This much madness is too much sorrow It's impossible to make it today. Yeah, she could drag me over the rainbow, send me away Down by the river I shot my baby Down by the river, Dead, oh, shot her dead. Be on my side, I'll be on your side, baby There is no reason for you to hide It's so hard for me staying here all alone When you could be taking me for a ride. Yeah, she could drag me over the rainbow, send me away Down by the river I shot my baby Down by the river, Dead, oh, shot her dead.

Well, your CD collection looks shiny and costly. How much did you pay for your bad Moto Guzi? And how much did you spend on your black leather jacket? Is it you or your parents in this income tax bracket? Now tickets to concerts and drinking at clubs, Sometimes for music that you haven't even heard of. And how much did you pay for your rock'n'roll t-shirt That proves you were there, That you heard of them first? How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle? How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle? How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle? Ah, tell me. How much did you pay for the chunk of his guitar, The one he ruthlessly smashed at the end of the show? And how much will he pay for a brand new guitar, One which he'll ruthlessly smash at the end of another show? And how long will the workers keep building him new ones? As long as their soda cans are red, white, and blue ones. And how long will the workers keep building him new ones? As long as their soda cans are red, white, and blue ones. Aging black leather and hospital bills, Tattoo removal and dozens of pills. Your liver pays dearly now for youthful magic moments, But rock on completely with some brand new components. How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle? How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle? How do you afford your rock'n'roll lifestyle? Excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking what they're selling. Your self-destruction doesn't hurt them. Your chaos won't convert them. They're so happy to rebuild it. You'll never really kill it. Yeah, excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking what they're selling. Excess ain't rebellion. You're drinking, You're drinking, You're drinking what they're selling.
