High Head Blues (2025 Remaster)

Sometimes I have a ghetto in my mind
And other times sunshine high head fine
In between I get cold, old mean
Intertwined with country pride open and kind

This draws a line
Sorry to coin a phrase
And on either side is wisdom and rage, yeah
So keeping track of time

Racing with my age
Sleeping with the snakes
Forget that you showed up late
It ain't worth it, baby

A charmed life it is
At least they tell you so
I got a good idea
It ain't like they say is so
And if it is, then let me go
Let me go

Any day there might be hell to pay
But in other ways
It makes it seem okay
I'll tell you what I mean

It's not a plot nor a scheme
It's just peace in my mind
Again, can I use the word kind?
I ain't sorry about it, baby

A charmed life it is
At least they tell you so
I got a good idea
It ain't like they say is so
And if it is, let me go
Let me go, let me go, I'm high
