Grateful Dead - Black Throated Wind Lyrics

Send "Black Throated Wind" ringtone to your cell

Youre bringing me down Im running aground

Blind in the lights of the interstate cars

Passing me by the busses and the semis

Plugging like stones from a slingshot from mars.

But Im here on the road bound to the load

That I picked up in ten thousand cafes and bars.

Alone with the rush of the drivers that wont pick me up

The highway the moon and clouds and the stars.

Black throated wind keeps on pourin in

With its words of a life where nothing is new

Ah mother american night I pass from the light

Ah Im drownin in you.

I left st. louie city of blues

In the midst of a storm Id rather forget.

I tried to pretend it came to an end

Cause you werent the women I once thought Id met.

But I cant deny times have gone by

Well I never had doubts or thoughts of regret

And I was a man when all this began

Who wouldnt think twice about being there yet.

Black throated wind whisper in sin

And speaking on life that passes like dew.

Its forced me to see youve done better by me

Better by me that Ive done by you.

Now whats to be found by racing around

You carry your pain wherever you go

Full of blues and tryin to lose

You aint gonna learn what you dont wanna know.

So I give you my eyes and all of their lies

Please help them to learn as well as to see.

Capture a glance and make it dance

But looking at you is looking at me.

Black throated wind keeps on pourin in

With its words of a life that could almost be true

Ah mother american night here comes a light.

Im turning around thats what Im gonna do.

Going back home thats what Im gonna do.

Im turning around thats what Im gonna do.

Going back home thats what Im gonna do.

Cause youve done better by me than Ive done by you

Im drowning in you.
