Schwa Lyrics

U.S. Blues

Lyricist: Garcia/Hunter
Vocalist: Phil Risko

    Red and white/blue suede shoes
    I'm Uncle Sam /how do you do?
    Gimme 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 hidin' 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 ol' 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
    Summertime done come and gone
    My oh My
