Grateful Dead

U.S. Blues

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

Stays 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 then shock the hand

Of P. T. Barnum and Charlie Chann

Shine your shoes, light the fuse

Can you use them old U.S. Blues?

I'll drink ya health, share ya wealth

Run ya life, steal ya 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 all 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
