The 77s
Blue Sky (Live at Christ Church, 11/3/99)
[Verse 1]
Moline
Saying what she didn't mean
Making like a Dairy Queen
Milking me when I was never gonna be the king
Well, I swear
She feathered up her little nest
To treat me like a little guest
She got the best and I swallowed all the rest

[Chorus 1]
All she needed
Was a blue sky hangin' 'round
To keep the rain from coming down, yeah

[Verse 2]
I fell
Ran off half-cocked, pell mell
Got caught smoking in her little hell
Devil or angel, I could never tell
I jumped fence
Now I'm living in the present tense
No more little accidents
No more sideshow, me the main event

[Chorus 2]
All she needed
Was a blue sky hangin' 'round
To keep the rain from coming down, yeah
All she needed
Was a blue sky hangin' 'round
I need to know
(I need to know)
I need to go
[Bridge]
No rain
No rain
I got caught in the rain before
Telling you baby
Won't get caught no more

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 3]
All she needed
Was a blue sky hangin' 'round
All she needed
Was a blue train leaving town
All she needed
Was a blue sky hangin' 'round
I need to know
(I need to know)
I need to go
All she needed
All she needed
Was a blue sky hangin' 'round
All she needed
Was a blue train leaving town
All she needed
Was a blue sky hangin' 'round
All she needed
All she needed, blue train
[Spoken Outro]
