SNAKE RIVER
[ country-rock; co-written by Daniel Muhammad ]

Went down to the doctor store, see if they had any pills

To pacify some of the pain of relievin’ these social ills

Wide lane, fast food, stuff on the side does it most every time

Such a fine job abusing myself it’s become unorganized crime

Too many miles down Snake River, Hells Canyon gorge below

Got pulled in a little too deep in the goodtime overflow

If I had a chance to do it again more than likely I’d say “no”

Too many miles down Snake River waitin’ for the dam to blow

Driftin' along in a mellow current then my rock began to roll

Dragged into swirlin' rapids on auto-pilot out'ta control

May have done right once or twice but I don’t recall quite when

Lately this short-fused rocket's been burnin’ at too many ends

Too many miles down Snake River, Hells Canyon gorge below

Got pulled in a little too deep in the goodtime overflow

If I had a chance to do it again more than likely I’d say “no”

Too many miles down Snake River waitin’ for the dam to blow

Some claim to have no regrets but with me it just ain’t so

Wouldn’t really wanna wish this ride even on the guy down below

Too many miles down Snake River, Hells Canyon gorge below

Got pulled in a little too deep in the goodtime overflow

Probably should’ve listened when they said I’d reap what I sow

Too many miles down Snake River waitin’ for the dam to blow

Yeah, too many miles down Snake River, dam’s about to blow

(Dam's about to blow)
