The Mess Hall - Bare lyrics

Last night I dreamt That my hair had turned to white I was Leland Palmer With a devil in my eyes I got up I got dressed And took a drive The sun shined My black dog Had turned a shade of white He'd turned a shade of white I headed north towards the city Where I once lived She used to wave at me Before hitching up her dress But now the times have changed And she can barely blow a kiss You come and go But find you're never really missed You find you're never really miseed I took the southern And let it roll under my feet I turned the radio up And found a reason to believe The three things you need If you're ever on your own Chuck Berry, Havana moon and a home I disappeared under a sea of tremolo I came up Baring a piece of cattle bone If the world is really sinking to its knees My little girl will need to sharpen up her beck She'll need to sharpen up her beak She'll make a promise She'll make a promise Just for me To keep it simple Keep it honest Keep it free And when the tide rises And you think you've seen it all My little girl You'd better walk before you crawl You'd better walk before you crawl I had a vision Of myself at 88 I was half alive Half asleep And half awake And though my eyes were closed I could see the other side I hit the ceiling And left my body for the fire I left my body for the fire Last night I dreamt That my hair had turned to white I was Leland Palmer With a devil in my eye Street sweeper Clean out the garbage in my soul I am ready Yeah I am ready To grow old I'm gonna walk before I crawl
