Artist/Band: Indigo Girls
Lyrics for Song: Uncle John's Band
Lyrics for Album: Rarities [2005]



Well, the first days are the hardest days, don't you worry anymore

'Cause when life looks like easy street, there is danger at your door

Now think this through with me, let me know your mind

Whoa oh, what I want to know is, are you kind



Now it's a buck dancer's choice, my friends, better take my advice

You know all the rules by now and the fire from the ice

Now will you come with me, won't you come with me?

Whoa oh, what I want to know, will you come with me?



Sister, well, I declare, have you seen the like

Their walls are built of cannon balls, their motto is ''Don't tread on me"

Come hear uncle John's band playing to the tide

Come with me or go alone, he's come to take his children home



It's the same story the crow told me, it's the only one he knows

Like the morning sun you come and like the wind you go

Ain't no time to hate, barely time to wait

Whoa oh, what I want to know, where does the time go?



I live in a silver mine and I call it beggar's tomb

I've got me a violin and I beg you call the tune

Anybody's choice, I can hear your voice

Whoa oh, what I want to know, how does the song go?



Come hear uncle John's band by the riverside

Got some things to talk about here beside the rising tide

Come hear uncle John's band, playing to the tide

Come on, come on or go alone, he's come to take his children home



Whoa oh, what I want to know, how does the song go?



Come hear uncle John's band by the riverside

Got some things to talk about here beside the rising tide

Come hear uncle John's band playing to the tide

Come on along or go alone, he's come to take his children home



Come hear uncle John's band by the riverside

(Brother, ain't no time to hate)

Got some things to talk about here beside the rising tide

(Sister, ain't no time to wait)

Come hear uncle John's band playing to the tide

Come on along or go alone, he's come to take his children home



Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh
