U.S. Blues - Grateful Dead

Red and white, blue suede shoes

I’m Uncle Sam, how do you do?

Give me five, I’m still alive

Ain’t no luck, I learned to duck

Check my pulse, it don’t change

Stay seventy-two come shine or rain

Wave the flag, pop the bag

Rock the boat, skin the goat

Wave that flag, wave it wide and high

Summertime done, come and gone, my, oh, my

I’m Uncle Sam, that’s who I am

Been hiding out in a rock and roll band

Shake the hand that shook the hand of P.T.

Barnum and Charlie Chan

Shine your shoes, light your fuse

Can you use them old U.S. Blues?

I’ll drink your health, share your wealth

Run your life, steal your wife

Wave that flag, wave it wide and high

Summertime done, come and gone, my, oh, my

Back to back chicken shack

Son of a gun, better change your act

We’re all confused, what’s to lose?

You can call this song the United States Blues

Wave that flag, wave it wide and high

Summertime done, come and gone, my, oh, my

My my my oh my my my my

Summertime done, come and gone, my
