[length: 04:56]
[00:27.94]Look out boys I’m a rollin stone
[00:34.29]That’s what I was when I first left home
[00:40.53]I took every secret that I’d ever known
[00:46.98]And headed for the wall
[00:54.11]Like a wrecking ball
[01:00.46]Started down on that road of sin
[01:06.86]Playing bass under a pseudonym
[01:14.06]The days were rough and it’s all quite dim
[01:19.42]But my mind cuts through it all
[01:26.65]Like a wrecking ball
[01:34.83]Oh just a little Deadhead
[01:40.22]Who is watching
[01:43.84]Who is watching
[01:46.50]I was just a little Deadhead
[01:53.70]A fallen daughter on a scholarship
[02:00.01]I got tired and let my average slip
[02:06.42]Then I was a farmer in the Pogonip
[02:13.64]Where the weed that I recall
[02:19.99]Was like a wrecking ball
[02:26.29]I met a lovesick daughter of the San Joaquin
[02:32.67]She showed me colors I’d never seen
[02:39.85]Then drank the bottom out of my canteen
[02:45.20]And let it fall
[02:52.53]Like a wrecking ball
[02:59.74]Standin there in the morning mist
[03:06.96]Tug the coat at the end of my wrist
[03:11.59]Yes I remember when first we kissed
[03:17.88]Though it was nothing at all
[03:25.90]Like a wrecking ball
[03:32.29]Hey boys just a little Deadhead
[03:37.76]Who is watching
[03:41.34]Who is watching
[03:45.89]I was just a little Deadhead
[03:52.19]With too much trouble for me to shake
[03:58.43]Oh the weather and the blinding ache
[04:05.70]We were riding high until the ’89 quake
[04:11.16]Hit the Santa Cruz Garden Mall
[04:18.39]Like a wrecking ball
