Drunken Head Ghost of Rimbaud Blues Lyrics

The Waterboys

Rollin′

Well, the bricks are piled on Main Street
And the sun is goin' down
Anybody with any sense has already left town
The wind is hollering loathsome
And the ghost of Rimbaud rides
I′ve got a drunken head full of reasons why
I've got a broken heart inside

Now I can hear a dog someplace barking
I hear the wind begin to moan
At night, I walk these rain splattered streets
I'm dead on my feet and all alone

I′m on a slippery slop here
I can feel the downward slide
I′ve got a drunken head full of reasons why
I've got a broken heart inside

Oh, I have seen my future slipping away like sand
Love has grown wings and left me
Flown right out of my hands
Now I′m weary and bruised from singing the blues
And my fortunes are down
My face and my walk are known in every bar and dive in town

You may ask me what am I doing
But I'll let your question ride
I′ve got a drunken head full of reasons why
I've got a broken heart inside

Alright, whoo!

I′ve got no place to run
And I've got no place to hide
All of my cares, all of my troubles
All of my worries, all of my pride
All of my sins, all of my misfortunes
They're being washed in by the tide

And I wish, oh, how I wish
That I could just get on that horse
And just ride and ride, ride and ride, ride and ride, ride and ride, ride and ride
Ride and ride, ride and ride

Oh, I just wanna ride, ride, ride, ride, ride and ride, ride and ride
Ride and ride, ride and ride, ride and ride, ride and ride
I just wanna ride, ride, ride, ride, ride and ride, ride and ride
Just wanna ride, ride, ride, ride, ride and ride, ride and ride

Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side
Ride on to the other side, the other side, the other side, the other side, the other side
The other side, the other side

Woo-hoo, woo-hoo
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo
Woo-hoo, woo-hoo
