Chickamauga lyrics
by Uncle Tupelo



You'd never leave on your ownWhere you're from and where you're goingI know these things like I know you hate me nowCatch yourself in mid-air thinkingYour dreams can never be boughtI couldn't help you then and I guess I can't help you nowWhen jousting is for pleasurePleasure is way out of handThe time is right for getting out while we still canChickamauga's where I've beenSolitude is where I'm boundI don't ever wanna taste these tears againI don't ever wanna taste these tears againAppalachian, so patientThe lessons we've traveledAs soon as we're out we're kicking our way back inFighting fire with unlit matchesFrom our respective trenchesNo authority can clean up this mess we're inA miracle might point the wayTo solutions we're afterAnd avert our chronic impending disasterChickamauga's where I've beenSolitude is where I'm boundI don't ever wanna taste these tears again
