Steve Earle - Waitin' On The Sky lyrics

rate me

I grew up in a "Military Town"

Waiting on the sky to fall

Everybody I knew, Hangin' around

wondering what to do

When the draft board calls

Looking back. it must have been a miracle now

I ever grew up at all

Singing about living in a military town

Waitin' on the sky to fall

Waitin' on the sky to fall, Boys

Waitin' on the sky to fall

Drinkin' in the woods makin' nothing but noise?

WAITING ON THE SKY TO FALL.

Spent a lonely lifetime

Rollin' on down the line

Searching for the holy grail

Everyone's crossed my solitary mind

Leaving me such, consecrated quested fail

Come up upon an ocean and much to my chagrin

They told me that ship had sailed

Walking on the water, cause i never learned to swim

Searching for the holy grail

Searching for the holy grail, Friends

Searching for the holy grail

I went across an ocean and now I'M BACK AGAIN

SEARCHING FOR THE HOLY GRAIL.

whoop

Hangin' around a love i know, a little bit now

and I am sitting on Top Of The World

Bangin' on a guitar while the sun goes down

singing a song about a red headed girl

Most of time I would have said them days was gone

But, I'm given it another whirl

Didn't know that I was gonna live this long

now, I am sitting on Top Of The World

Sitting on Top Of The World, Y'all

Sitting on Top Of The World

Eyes wide open till the messenger calls

SITTING ON TOP OF THE WORLD!
