Ten Degrees and Getting Colder - Nanci Griffith[00:00:00]
He was standing by the highway[00:00:07]
With a sign that just said mother[00:00:10]
When he heard a driver coming[00:00:12]
About a half a mile away[00:00:15]
So he held the sign up higher[00:00:17]
Where no decent soul could miss it[00:00:20]
It was ten degrees or colder[00:00:22]
Down by boulder dam that day[00:00:25]
He was raised up in milwaukee[00:00:29]
Though he never was that famous[00:00:31]
He was just a road musician[00:00:34]
To the taverns he would go[00:00:36]
Singing songs about the ramblin'[00:00:39]
The lovin' girls and gamblin'[00:00:42]
How the world fell on his shoulders[00:00:44]
Back in boulder I don't know[00:00:46]
And she told him she would take him[00:00:51]
For a ride in the morning sun[00:00:56]
Back in boulder he had told her[00:01:01]
I don't know when I've had a better friend[00:01:06]
It was out in arizona[00:01:14]
That he heard the lady listening[00:01:16]
To each word that he was saying[00:01:19]
To each line that he would write[00:01:21]
So he sat down at her table[00:01:24]
And they talked about the weather[00:01:26]
98 6 and rising down by boulder dam that night[00:01:29]
And she told him she would take him[00:01:37]
For a ride in the morning sun[00:01:41]
Back in boulder he had told her[00:01:47]
I don't know when I've had a better friend[00:01:51]
Now he's traded off his martin[00:01:59]
Though his troubles ain't over[00:02:02]
His feet are almost frozen and the sun is sinking[00:02:04]
Low[00:02:09]
Won't you listen to me brother if you ever loved[00:02:10]
Your mother[00:02:13]
I want to pull off on the shoulder[00:02:14]
If you're goin' milwaukee[00:02:17]
Way[00:02:19]
It's ten degrees and getting colder down by boulder dam[00:02:19]
Today[00:02:23]
