The Jayhawks

The Jayhawks are an American alternative country and rock band that emerged from the Twin Cities music scene during the mid 1980s. Their country rock sound was influential on many bands who played the Twin Cities circuit during the 1980s and 1990s like Uncle Tupelo, The Gear Daddies and The Honeydogs. They have released several studio albums, including five on the American Recordings label. On hiatus from 2005 to 2009, the band has since reunited and released a new album, "Mockingbird Time," in September 2011. more »

On a nice spring day
I found a cage in the yard
It was just that way
I found a cage in the yard

I was thinking back about all the times
I was stuck in the basement
With the booze on my mind
I was thinking back about all the times
I was stuck in the basement
With the booze on my mind

High water, high water
High water blues
High water, high water
High water blues

?
And the smiles of ?
All the keys that I made
Never fit in the car

I was reeling and I couldn't be found
Like the hammer hits a nail
I was bent upside down
I was reeling and I couldn't be found
Like the hammer hits a nail
I was bent upside down

High water, high water
High water blues
High water, high water
High water blues

Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin

Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin

Broken bottles a disgrace
Weeds and old metal wire
?
I used an old black tire

All my picture were locked up in a trunk
When the water came up
It was just my bad luck
All my picture were locked up in a trunk
When the water came up
It was just my bad luck

High water, high water
High water blues
High water, high water
High water blues

Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin

Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
