This Old Skin - Beautiful South[00:00:00]

It was '96 in south carolina [00:00:14]

Thats the place and not the goddam year [00:00:18]

I was sittin on the porch out at bobbys place [00:00:22]

Just tuggin on a lukewarm beer [00:00:25]

There i was peepin like that old sidewinder [00:00:30]

Just an inch or so above the mud [00:00:33]

The first to find out that its rainin[00:00:37]

Is the last to find out its a flood [00:00:40]

It was paradise valley nevada [00:00:46]

Not far from where the west was won [00:00:50]

I am the only black face in the whole damn place[00:00:53]

Just a raisin in the blazing sun [00:00:57]

Here i am like that old sidewinder [00:01:01]

Just wishin that her eggs aint hatched [00:01:04]

And the chain i wear has 'em wishin for[00:01:08]

The day when it came with a ball attached [00:01:11]

So im gonna move right outta this town [00:01:17]

When this old skin stops weighin me down [00:01:25]

This old skin [00:01:32]

He was sittin in the very same spot[00:01:32]

That otis sat to watch the dock of the bay [00:01:35]

In the very same spot the ships rolled in [00:01:40]

Now there's nothing but the mud and the clay [00:01:43]

Im gonna move right outta this town [00:01:47]

This old skin is weighing me down [00:01:54]

This old skin [00:02:02]

Outside atlanta when the sunshine state[00:02:10]

Has just upped itself another degree [00:02:13]

I am the very last orange of the whole years crop [00:02:17]

Hangin dearly to the branch of the tree [00:02:21]

And the wind in the spring couldn't do anything [00:02:24]

So im burnin in the sun of the south [00:02:28]

That old sidewinder in the dust below [00:02:32]

Im just waiting till it opens its mouth [00:02:35]

So im gonna move right outta this town [00:02:40]

This old skin finally touches the ground [00:02:48]

This old skin [00:02:56]

He was sittin in the very same spot[00:02:56]

That otis sat to watch the dock of the bay [00:02:59]

The very same spot the ships rolled in [00:03:04]

Now there's nothing but the mud and the clay [00:03:07]

Now im gonna move right outta this town [00:03:10]

This old skin finally touches the ground [00:03:18]

This old skin[00:03:25]

This old skin[00:03:29]

This old skin[00:03:32]

This old skin[00:03:40]
