Текст песни The Grateful Dead - Touch Of Grey

Must be getting early,
Clocks are running late.
Paint by number morning sky
Looks so phony.

Dawn is breaking everywhere.
Light a candle, curse the glare.
Draw the curtains, I don't care 'cause
It's all right.

[Chorus:]
I will get by.
I will get by.
I will get by.
I will survive.

I see you've got your fist out.
Say your piece and get out.
Guess I get the gist of it, but
It's all right.

Sorry that you feel that way.
The only thing there is to say:
Every silver lining's got a
Touch of Grey.

[Chorus]

It's a lesson to me.
The Ables and the Bakers and the C's
The ABC's we all must face,
Try to keep a little grace.

[Intramental verse and chorus]

It's a lesson to me.
The deltas and the east and the freeze.
The ABC's we all think of,
Try to leave a little love.

I know the rent is in arrears,
The dog has not been fed in years.
It's even worse than it appears, but
It's all right.

Cow's giving kerosene,
Kid can't read at seventeen.
The words he knows are all obscene, but
It's all right.

[Chorus]

The shoe is on the hand it fits.
There's really nothing much to it.
Whistle through your teeth and spit, cause
It's all right.

Oh well, a Touch of Grey
Kind of suits you anyway.
That was all I had to say and
It's all right.

[Chorus]

We will get by.
We will get by.
We will get by.
We will survive.
[Repeat]
