![]() Kerosene Hat (1993) [ larger cover art ] |
Sometimes I wanna take you down
Sometime I wanna get you low
Brush your hair back from your eyes
Take you down let the river flow
Sometimes I go and walk the street
Behind a green sheet of glass
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
A million poppies gonna make me sleep
Just one rose it knows your name
The fruit is rusting on the vine
A fruit is calling from the trees
Hey don't you wanna go down
Like some junky cosmonaut
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
Blue, blue is the sun
Brown, brown is the sky
Green, green are her eyes
A million miles, a million miles
Hey don't you wanna go down
Like some disgraced cosmonaut
A million miles below their feet
A million miles, a million miles
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned
I'll be with you, girl, like being low
Hey, hey, hey like being stoned

They ALWAYS put on a hell of a show, and I've seen close to 20 of them since 1992. And yes, Mr. Hickman is an amazing guitarist. |

| pigtail (Southern California) | Posted: Dec 12, 2012 - 10:29 Love this but I actually prefer the version with Leftover Salmon.......truly awesome |
| Poacher (Brighton, UK) | Posted: Dec 12, 2012 - 10:26 Yes, yes, yes. . . the best track off this cd by a long way. I like to play this at huge volume at Poacher Mansions so that the furniture rattles across the wooden floors. |

| discdrive | Posted: Jul 03, 2010 - 20:37 Funny after "The Court Of The Crimson King". Like it. |
| garycha (Bristol, UK) | Posted: Jun 02, 2010 - 03:50 It's great track. Were it dug out of the archive as a previously unheard long lost Nirvana outtake, there would be much fawning going on. Yes, it sounds like loads of other rock tracks, but lets face it, they all share DNA. So what? Stands test of time and still sounds good LOUD. |

Can't believe they were considered the headliners. |

| almafi (Marquette, UP, MI) | Posted: Jan 26, 2009 - 13:02 This is really weird. I remember seeing a poster for Duluth, Minnesota's Green Man Festival...maybe 2004. The acts went as follows: Willie Nelson, Cracker, Low, Trampled by Turtles....etc. Cracker - Low ignited that memory. Weird. |
