The Grateful Dead
Hell in a Bucket (Live at Hartford Civic Center, October 14, 1983)
[Verse 1]
Well, I was drinking last night with a biker
And I showed him a picture of you
I said "Pal, get to know her, you'll like her"
Seemed like the least I could do
'Cause when he's charging his chopper
Up and down your carpeted halls
You will think me by contrast quite proper
Nevermind how I stumble and fall
No, nevermind how I stumble and fall

[Chorus]
You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For a taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, baby
But at least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
Hey, at least I'm enjoying the ride

[Verse 2]
Ah, miss sweetie, little soft-core pretender
Somehow baby got hard as it gets
With her black leather chrome spiked suspenders
And a chair for your whip and your pets
And we know you're the reincarnation
Of the infamous Catherine the Great
And we know how you love your ovations
And the Z-rated scenes you create
Yeah, the Z-rated scenes you create
[Chorus]
You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For a taste of your elegant pride
I may be going to hell in a bucket, baby
But at least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
Yeah, at least I'm enjoying the ride

[Bridge]
You analyze me, attempt to despise me
And you laugh when I stumble and fall
There may come a day I will dance on your grave
If unable to dance I'll sill crawl across it
Unable to dance I will crawl
Yeah, unable to dance I'll crawl

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
You must really consider the circus
'Cause it just might be your kind of zoo
I can't think of a place that's more perfect
For a person as perfect as you
And it's not like I'm leaving you lonely
'Cause I wouldn't know where to begin
But I know that you'll think of me only
When the snakes come marching in
When the snakes come marching in
[Chorus]
You imagine me sipping champagne from your boot
For a taste of your elegant pride
May be going to hell in a bucket, baby
But at least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride

[Outro]
At least I'm enjoying the ride
Woo, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
Ride, ride, ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
Ride, ride, ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
Ride, ride, ride
At least I'm enjoying, enjoying the ride
Hey, hey, ho
At least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
Oh, at least I'm enjoying the ride
Oh, at least I'm enjoying the ride
At least I'm enjoying the ride
