The Lowdown Drifters
The Ballad of the Shadow Reef
(Verse 1)
I’m getting a contact high from a resin pipe
Oyster shooters and warm Busch Light
If you ever seen a shooting star in the after
Well, there’s a mountain of a man in an F250
Singing Merle and Cash, drinking Old Crow Whiskey
He told me that I might just be a star
(Chorus)
So, I’m sitting here high and dry, waiting on the sun
Wishing that high tide would set me, go on and set me free
Cause I finally broke loose of the sandy bottom
The anchor that held me has done and gone broke free
Go on and set me free
(Verse 2)
Wеll, I think seen a big ol’ sea monster
That or the shrooms wеre a little bit stronger
Feeling like I’m sinking while these white caps rage
Well, I had to have an anchor just like a woman
But after a fight with the gale wind blowing
Decide to break up and go our separate ways
Now I’m a shadow on the reef laying under the wave
Cause I can see the beach from here and i feel free
Davey Jones works, just got the best of me
(Chorus)
So, I’m sitting here high and dry, waiting on the sun
Wishing that high tide would set me, go on and set me free
Cause I finally broke loose of the sandy bottom
The anchor that held me has done and gone broke free
Go on and set me free
(Outro)
Free, free, free
Free, free, free
