| Lyrics: | I was raised up family, man, I'm glad I'm on my own.
I was raised up family, man, I'm glad I'm
on my own.
I mean, God bless the child that can learn to live alone, yeah.
Thinking
about my cousin, what it was that did him in.
Could it have been that whiskey, rotgut, bootleg,
bathtub gin?
It's like it took a lot of liquor just to let him live in his own
skin.
Back in Raleigh, North Carolina, you got to ride it on back in Raleigh, North
Carolina.
The ship set down on the shore of this uncharted desert island,
me and my
people fanned out, I guess we settled down a little while.
Ah, but the devil came with the dark
days of winter, man, the children ran wild.
I used to know why, no, I don't know why
anymore.
I used to know why, no, I don't know why no more.
I get to wonder at the
Kundalini thunder, down under my floor.
You got to ride it on back, take me back.
Back
in Raleigh, North Carolina, yeah, do you wanna go?
Way back in Raleigh, North Carolina. |
