When You Awake (Live)

Ollie, told me that, that I'm a fool
So I walked on down the road a mile
And went to the house that brings a smile
Sat upon my grandpa's knee
And what do you think he said to me?
When you awake you will remember ev'rything
You will be hangin' on a string
When you believe, you will relieve the only soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know
Ollie, showed me the fork in the road, he said
"Yeah, you can to take to the left or go straight to the right
Save your days and use your nights
Be careful where you step and watch wha-cha eat
Sleep with the light on and you got it beat"
When you awake you will remember ev'rything
You will be hangin' on a string, yeah and
When you believe, you will relieve the only soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know
Ollie, told me it's a mean old world
The street don't greet ya, yes, it's true
But what am I supposed to do
Read the writing on the wall
I heard it when I was very small
When you awake you will remember ev'rything
You will be hangin' on a string and
When you believe, you will relieve the only soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know, oh no, no
I wash my hands in lye water
Got a date with the captains daughter
You can go and tell your brother
We sure gonna love one another
Oh, it's okay, it's all right, yeah, yeah
You may be right and you might be wrong
No I won't worry all day long
Snow's gonna come and the frost gonna bite
My old car froze up last night
Ain't no reason to hang my head
So I could wake up in the mornin' dead, oh no, no
And if I thought it would do any good
I'd stand on the rock where Moses stood
