Clouds were smeared across the sky
Sun had stopped to chase a fly
Didn’t care bout when or why
Some old car raisin up dust
Some old car kickin up dirt
Didn’t care who it was or weren’t
I’ll take it all even the hurt
I’m on the right side of the grass

On the right side of the grass
Unlike so many who have gone
Let’s drink to them and move along
On the right side of the lawn
On the right side of the grass
We are so very, very young
This might be our only chance
On the right side of the grass

Two planes like switchblades overhead
Shootin along, side by side
We get the light, the stars have passed
Not even universes last
Out here nothing moves too fast
Coyotes and birds, bout all you’ll hear
I take a sip out of my flask
I’m on the right side of the grass

On the right side of the grass
Unlike so many who have gone
Let’s drink to them and move along
On the right side of the lawn
On the right side of the grass
We are so very, very young
This might be our only chance
On the right side of the grass
