From a Rooftop - Todd Snider Lyrics




East Nashville? Shit, man

We're living in a dream world over here

Born on a full moon's what I heard

Turned over drinks from a neighborhood into a full-on

goddamn dream world

By two guys if you ask me

Mike "Grimey" Grimes and Skip Kenneth Francis "Play a

Fuckin' Train Song" Litz

The spirit of whom many still claim to see on full

moon's to this day

Swervin' up Woodland in that ghost of a Cadillac he

drives

Of course a lot of us smoke more dope before 9am that

most people do all day

Saturday nights at the Three Crow, Sunday's - Alley Cat

We're that guy from your town that would rather pick

than eat

And we all met here to do almost exactly that

We usually got about a half a tank of gas

And we don't feel like crossing the river

But we will, we will if it's for a song we like



Nobody else in the whole world knows when Mac's gonna

open the Radio Cafe

But we do, and we tell each other

We stand around down there and smoke during Dave

Onley's break

Just like we do outside the Family Wash during Tommy

Womack's

On the Fourth, we have the best illegal fireworks show

on earth

Last year, we even got it together to organize a non-

fly-over by the United States Air Force

It was beautiful

We were all pretty high

Our skyline, it ain't very high

But we love it

It says "Discount Cigarettes Liquor and Wine" across it

I think our neighborhood's a lot like our skyline

We've got great news and we're shoutin' it from the

highest rooftop we got



...we deliver
