Unwind

Fresh off the Greyhound New Orleans,

Making my way to see the Riverboat Queen,

Hoping the waves of the Mississippi release me.

Ice-cold Dixie in a paper bag,

Everybody wants something they ain't had,

I'm just looking for a life that's free and easy.

To get a little bit tangled,

To get a little bit jangled,

To get a little bit high and unwind.

Well, I got a little drunk,

Made a couple of friends,

Got stoned with a man in the back of his van.

Patch on his jacket said "Hurricane Sam".

He said, "There's a little magic here in all of us,

But if you wanna see it, kid, you gotta look up."

So I let it sink in,

Then we took another puff.

We got a little bit tangled,

A little bit jangled,

A little bit high. Yeah babe.

I'm tired of walking on a tightrope.

I want to just let it all go.

I want to unwind.

Unwind. Yeah babe.

You can spend your whole life just spinning your wheels,

But it ain't gonna happen just by clicking your heels.

And there ain't no use in future-tripping.

So slow yourself down, let your worries rest,

Soak in every minute, every day you get.

Before you breathe out, you've gotta breathe in.

Yeah, before we breathe out, we've gotta breathe in.

Get a little bit tangled,

A little bit jangled,

A little bit high.

I'm tired of walking on a tightrope.

I want to just let it all go.

I want to unwind.

Unwind.

A little bit tangled,

A little bit jangled,

Let's get a little bit high.

I'm tired of walking on a tightrope.

I want to just let it all go.

I want to unwind.

Unwind.

Unwind.

Unwind.
