Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Hang me in the wind 'til I get good and dry
And the kids that pass can scratch their heads
And say 'who was that guy?'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Looking outward see what you can see
By the time you look at something it's already history
As the echoes of our passing fade, all there is to say
Is, 'You know I loved you all in my particular way'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Hang me in the wind 'til I get good and dry
And the kids that pass can scratch their heads
And say 'who was that guy?'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
It's more blessed to give than it is to receive
Except when it comes to free advice I believe
Here I go anyway, back seat driving tonight
Move fast, stay cool, keep your eye on the front sight
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Hang me in the wind 'til I get good and dry
And the kids that pass can scratch their heads
And say 'who was that guy?'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Hang me in the wind 'til I get good and dry
And the kids that pass can scratch their heads
And say 'who was that guy?'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Looking outward see what you can see
By the time you look at something it's already history
As the echoes of our passing fade, all there is to say
Is, 'You know I loved you all in my particular way'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Hang me in the wind 'til I get good and dry
And the kids that pass can scratch their heads
And say 'who was that guy?'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
It's more blessed to give than it is to receive
Except when it comes to free advice I believe
Here I go anyway, back seat driving tonight
Move fast, stay cool, keep your eye on the front sight
Tie me at the crossroads when I die
Hang me in the wind 'til I get good and dry
And the kids that pass can scratch their heads
And say 'who was that guy?'
Tie me at the crossroads when I die

Tie me kangaroo down, sport!
Not the best song on this very fine cd, but it's worth a "7" in my estimation.
Possibly the most formulaic, generic rock song I've ever heard.
This is a fun song, but the drums are really distracting.
Not bad. Sounding a lot like Warren Zevon.
Fun lyrics, I like it. :D
not bad, I picture John Hiatt singing this and really making it hit home, definitely not BC's best
I like this - it makes me happy. \:D/
