about

Early band on a west coast tour- we picked up a hitchhiker on a dark night near San Clemente, CA. She was not well.

lyrics

Making plans for the holiday
in the California sun
we picked her up on a crooked stretch
of highway 101
looking out at the universe
through a bottle black and brown
seeing everything in reverse
and upside down

We asked her where she was headed
and she quickly asked the same
she had a bag for every man
that ever played that game
talking back to Lucifer
through a two inch plastic pipe
if you want to get rid of her boy
you’ve got to give her a ride

out here in the cornfield
the crows line up on your arm
you’re pointing east and you’re pointing west
but you’ll never step one foot off this farm
no you’ll never set one foot off this farm

looking out at the universe
through a bottle black and brown
seeing everything in reverse
and upside down
