The Load Out - Jackson Browne[00:00:05]
Now the seats are all empty[00:00:34]
Let the roadies take the stage[00:00:38]
Pack it up and tear it down[00:00:43]
They're the first to come and last to leave[00:00:47]
Working for that minimum wage[00:00:52]
They'll set it up in another town[00:00:57]
Tonight the people were so fine[00:01:03]
They waited there in line[00:01:09]
And when they got up on their feet they made the show[00:01:13]
And that was sweet--[00:01:22]
But I can hear the sound[00:01:24]
Of slamming doors and folding chairs[00:01:26]
And that's a sound they'll never know[00:01:31]
Now roll them cases out and lift them amps[00:01:39]
Haul them trusses down and get'em up them ramps[00:01:44]
'Cause when it comes to moving me[00:01:48]
You know You guys are the champs[00:01:51]
But when that last guitar's been packed away[00:01:56]
You know that I still want to play[00:02:00]
So just make sure you got it all set to go[00:02:05]
Before you come for my piano[00:02:10]
But the band's on the bus[00:02:47]
And they're waiting to go[00:02:53]
We've got to drive all night and do a show in Chicago[00:02:56]
Or Detroit I don't know[00:03:05]
We do so many shows in a row[00:03:09]
And these towns all look the same[00:03:14]
We just pass the time in our hotel rooms[00:03:19]
And wander 'round backstage[00:03:24]
Till those lights come up and we hear that crowd[00:03:27]
And we remember why we came[00:03:32]
Now we got country and western on the bus[00:04:09]
R and B we got disco in eight tracks and cassettes in stereo[00:04:16]
We've got rural scenes and magazines[00:04:27]
We've got truckers on the CB[00:04:32]
We've got Richard Pryor on the video[00:04:36]
We got time to think of the ones we love[00:04:41]
While the miles roll away[00:04:45]
But the only time that seems too short[00:04:50]
Is the time that we get to play[00:04:54]
People you've got the power over what we do[00:04:59]
You can sit there and wait[00:05:03]
Or you can pull us through[00:05:06]
Come along sing the song[00:05:08]
You know you can't go wrong[00:05:12]
'Cause when that morning sun comes beating down[00:05:17]
You're going to wake up in your town[00:05:21]
But we'll be scheduled to appear[00:05:27]
A thousand miles away from here[00:05:31]
