Duff Mckagan - Swamp Song Duff Mckagan - Swamp Song |
| Swamp Song
I labeled the song before I wrote lyrics because it had a really dark, macabre sound, (if a swamp could speak). The words speak for themselves (I despise the cliché Rock Star life). Jeff Beck again played lead, West Arkeen and I played rhythm.
I don't really need the ego
Of being a pop star
Well, playing rock & roll makes me
Stand hard & tall
Once an old man with blood on his hands
Said "Pick up my guitar and use it"
Then he took it from me
Said "Let your soul run free", yeah
People get so stuck on
Getting their name in lights
Fuckin' some famous model
Keepin' their assholes tight
So I played that guitar
Til my dick got hard
I fucked that bitch night & day
Time went by and that old man died
Got a note "Remember what I said"
Brought flowers to his grave
Laid 'em down, and my fingers started to bleed
I was finally free
I was finally free yeah
People get so stuck on getting their
Getting their Name in lights
Fuckin' some famous model
Keepin' their assholes tight, yeah
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh
Don't get me wrong
I ain't singin' this song
Bout bros who truly deserve it
But money & fame is for those truly lame
The ones who need to get their heads lit
So I played my guitar,
Yeah I played that bitch all night long
Yeah I played my guitar
I was finally free
So keep your head clear
Don't believe what you hear
Just play what comes from your soul
But if money & fame is your fuckin' game
Then I hope you die fat & old
So keep your head clear
Don't believe what you hear
Just play what comes from your soul
But if money & fame is your fuckin' game
Then I hope you die fat & old
So keep your head clear
Don't believe what you hear
Just play what comes from your soul
But if money & fame is your fuckin' game
Then I hope you die fat & old
So keep your head clear
Don't believe what you hear
Just play what comes from your soul
But if money & fame is your fuckin' game
Then I hope you die fat & old
