Lyrics
I'd like to dedicate this song to Kris Kristofferson
Johnny Cash and Billy Swan
Funky Donnie Frits and -
Pissin' in the wind, bettin' on a losing friend
Makin' the same mistakes, we swear we'll never make again
Pissin' in the wind, but it's blowing on all our friends
We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren
'Bout the time I called this Guy, it was four in the morning
To teach me the words to the song I was humming
Hm-mm, ah-ah
He just laughed and he said that the ole grey cat is sneakin' down the hall
But all he wants to know is who in the hell is paying for this call
Pissin' in the wind, bettin' on a losing friend
Makin' the same mistakes, we swear we'll never make again
We're pissin' in the wind, but it's blowing on all our friends
We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren
How this Nunn called me up, it was eight in the morning
Wanted to know how in the world am I doin'
Oh, mm-mm
He just laughed and he said, "Get it together, boy"
And fall on by the house
Some Gonzo buddies would like to play
Anything you're picking now
Pissin' in the wind, bettin' on a losing friend
Makin' the same mistakes, we swear we'll never make again
We're pissin' in the wind, but it's blowing on all our friends
We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren
How we worked and we suffered and struggled
Makin' our record 'til we got it right
Now we're waiting on the check to come sneaking down the hall
Like that old-time feeling
That we never should have ever put the record out at all
Just pissin' in the wind, bettin' on a losing friend
Makin' the same mistakes, we swear we'll never make again
We're pissin' in the wind, and it's blowing on all our friends
We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren
That the answer, my friend
Is just pissin' in the wind
Oh, the answer is pissin' in the sink
