Lyrics Dead Alive - Kurt Vile

Dead Alive

You telling me a good man is hard to find
Well, what are you blind?
Well, never mind, let’s try and have a good time
There was a war of independence
If a man’s a hindrance
Well, you know where you got a right to go
Better take a breather 'til you’re better, 'til you’re better, 'til you stop
sweating
Better take a breather 'til you stop sweating and knit me a sweater
You telling me a good man is hard to find
What was that?
You better rewind
Cause it’s me, mama, I’m showing everybody a good time
You’re always looking for a few good men
Well, here’s one
Baby, won’t get wasted on a gun
Better take a breather 'til you’re better, 'til you’re better, 'til you stop
sweating
Better take a breather 'til you stop sweating and knit me a sweater
Call me old dog when I’m gone, but when I’m back, it’s always
Old man, where you been so long, where you been so long, where you been so long?
And then since then, it’s just well, all right, A-OK, and always
Old man, where you been so long, where you been so long?
In a world that gets me high, I’m tied up and all the time, it’s always
Old man, where’s your mind at, where’s your mind at?
Until I, I come undone, I’m deaf and dumb, I’m rolling drums, I’m dead alive
