Sweet To Know Ya

Young man, kick a little dirt, kiss your baby, say it's sweet to know ya

Pick a lot on a hill in the shade of a red begonia

Hay needle blues, I can't quite reach the bottom of the stack

Saw a buck in the glow of the headlights, clay on the rack

You can scream, scream and shout, you can live with or without

You can boast, brag and tout, go so far with or without but

Someday, baby, someway

This life's gonna go out like the moon in the morning

I've been drenched to the bone in the pouring

Sweet Baby Ruth hit a fly ball, kissed an angel

My bones feel young, my woes feel age-old

Cold spring tears on my neck, it's a hell of a life

That you live so loud and proud and die so quiet

You can scream, scream and shout, you can live with or without

You can boast, brag and tout, go so far with or without, but

Someday, baby, someway

This life's gonna go out like the moon in the morning

I've been drenched to the bone in the pouring

This life's gonna go out like the moon in the morning

I've been drenched to the bone in the pouring

This life's gonna go out like the moon in the morning

I've been drenched to the bone in the pouring

Hay needle blues, I can't quite reach the bottom of the stack

Saw a buck in the glow of the headlights, clay on the rack
