Текст песни New Speedway Boogie (2023 Mickey Hart Mix) - Grateful Dead

Please don't dominate the rap, Jack
If you've got nothing new to say
If you please, don't back up the track
This train's got to run today

I spent a little time on the mountain
Spent a little time on the hill
Heard some say, "Better run away"
Others say, "You better stand still"

Now I don't know but I been told
"It's hard to run with the weight of gold"
Other hand I have heard it said
"It's just as hard with the weight of lead"

Who can deny? Who can deny?
It's not just a change in style
One step done and another begun
And I wonder how many miles?

I spent a little time on the mountain
Spent a little time on the hill
Things went down we don't understand
But I think in time we will

Now I don't know but I was told
"In the heat of the sun a man died of cold"
Keep on coming or stand and wait
With the sun so dark and the hour so late?
(Hour so late, hour so late)

You can't overlook the lack, Jack
Of any other highway to ride
It's got no signs or dividin' lines (woo, woo-yah, woo-yeah)
And very few rules to guide

I spent a little time on the mountain
I spent a little time on the hill
I saw things gettin' out of hand
I guess they always will

I don't know but I been told
"If the horse don't pull you got to carry the load"
I don't know whose back's that strong
Maybe find out before too long ('fore too long)

One way or another
One way or another
One way or another
This darkness got to give

One way or another
One way or another
One way or another
This darkness got to give

One way or another
One way or another, yeah
One way or another, yeah
This darkness got to give
Give

Woo-ooh-hoo
