I am interested in tapes/records with with either of these two songs
on them. I don't recall any of the words to Lindy, 'though I know
it is on some dead bootleg (historic dead?). I am not sure whether
the Dead proper have ever done "Can't Come Down" (in fact that might
not be the name of the song). A few lyrics that I can remember are
below. Almost seems like Mothers of invention X Grateful Dead.
I'm flying down deserted streets
wrapped in mother's winding sheets
asbestos boots on flaming feet
dreaming of ???
when uniforms on nightime beats
ask where I'm going and what I eat
I answer them with a voice so sweet
Refrain:
I can't come down
It's plain to see
I can't come down
I've been set free
Who you are and what you do
it makes no difference to me
...
I say "hey" to the man
with the funny hat
...
Any info concerning these two songs would be appreciated. Please mail me
the information (if there is enough interest I will post what I get).
BTW, were there net.dead I would have cross posted this to net.music anyway.
[to Rich, why didn't the creation of net.tv.drwho or net.movies.sw cause
all the problems that net.dead would create?]
