Stay off the grid in the summer
Sleep in the fields come fall
Shuffle your feet right away from the heat
And nothing can burn you at all
Get your family together
Roll in your sweet baby's arms
One step ahead of the searchlight
Hiding behind the barn
These are crying times
A river of tears and deceit
So easy to feel blind
Why does it seem so hard to be free?
These are wild times
Nothing is the way that it seems
You never know what you'll find
But it feels so good to be free
We're all brothers and sisters
So there ain't no reason to crawl
If you're not plugged in you ain't living in sin
And nothing can burn you at all
Get this family together
Roll in my sweet baby's arms
One step ahead of the searchlight
Never gonna come to no harm
