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)
