about

hillbilly punk rock squaredance

lyrics

When I was young and dumb
and full of something strong
I thought my heart could do no wrong
but after a thousand miles of pain
I finally let go of the reigns...

and I went deep into the forest
a strange woman there gave me rest
she said it's better to love, better to laugh,
you better respect your better half
better to hold you close a keep you near
better the eat you up my dear!
So I got out of there

and I went deep, I went deep, I went deep

when I was young and dumb
and full of foolish pride
went on one hell of a ride
along the way, found the brains
to let go of the reigns...

let go, let go, oh mamma take me home
‘cause I never want to feel
never want to feel so alone

there’s a serious joke I told the band
they did not understand.
Like a secret agent man
I’m making up the plan as I go -
better to grow, better to rise
better to come in it’s own time.
For reasons that I can’t explain
it’s better to let go of the reigns...

let go, let go, oh mamma take me home
‘cause I never want to feel
never want to feel so alone
