Amen - Tim Barry

Another festival well here I go

Singing songs that no one knows at all

Some times I’d rather be back home with small

Picking in the kitchen and smoking pot

I’ve played every dive bar here

I don’t care that you don’t care at all

Broke my hand up in Ottawa

I guess fighting these days just ain’t my thing

Dropped my transmission back on 65

Went deadhead with the Red Clay River Band

I made every scheduled show

Til in Brooklyn that borrowed van got stole, oh lord, oh lord

Amen yeah hallelujah

Take what they give out but don’t let it get to ya

Hallelujah yeah amen

Go on kick me in the head watch me get right back up again

After a truck stop shower at a flying J

About to sleep in the van with Emma my dog

Well in comes this big fancy tourbus

hauling a trailer with Jersey plates covered with salt

I knew everyone inside

Of that 14 bunk Hallejoe on 68 foot ride that passed me by

Amen yeah hallelujah

Take what they give out but don’t let it get to ya

Hallelujah yeah amen

Go on kick me in the head watch me get right back up again

Cause I made every fire myself

And I did every mile with no help

And I’d do it all again

Amen yeah hallelujah

Take what they give out but don’t let it get to ya

Hallelujah yeah amen

Go on kick me in the head watch me get right back up again
