Uncle John's Band (Live from Parc des Expositions, Dijon, France 9/18/74)

Well the first days are the hardest days, don't you worry any more

'Cause when life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door

Think this through with me, let me know your mind

Woah-oh, what I want to know, is are you kind?

It's a buck dancer's choice my friend better take my advice

You know all the rules by now and the fire from the ice

Will you come with me won't you come with me

Woah-oh, what I want to know, will you come with me?

Goddamn, well I declare, have you seen the like

Their wall are built of cannonballs, their motto is don't tread on me

Come hear Uncle John's Band playing to the tide

Come with me, or go alone, he's come to take his children home

It's the same story the crow told me; it's the only one he knows

Like the morning sun you come and like the wind you go

Ain't no time to hate, barely time to wait

Woah-oh, what I want to know, where does the time go?

I live in a silver mine and I call it "Beggar's Tomb"

I got me a violin and I beg you call the tune

Anybody's choice, I can hear your voice

Woah-oh, what I want to know, how does the song go

Come hear Uncle John's Band by the riverside

Got some things to talk about, here beside the rising tide

Come hear Uncle John's Band playing to the tide

Come on along, or go alone, he's come to take his children home

Woah-oh, what I want to know, how does the song go?

Come hear Uncle John's Band by the riverside

Got some things to talk about, here beside the rising tide

Come hear Uncle John's Band playing to the tide

Come on along, or go alone, he's come to take his children home

Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh

Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh
