I drove so far baby, tried to climb so high, just wanted to lose myself, thought I might as well try,
If you never knew me better, baby, it would be alright, 'cause you got the best I had to offer, night after night,
In the end I resolved nothing, but I kept moving,
In the end I'm just living, breathing, before my time is all gone
Saw mountains, hills, and valleys, deserts, rivers, and stones,
I drove that endless highway, found myself still alone,
Saw some clouds that cast big shadows, saw the Columbia gorge,
Beautiful sky going on forever to the blue ocean shore
In the end there's no right answer, everybody's unsure,
The best laid plans foil the planner, no one has the cure,
No one has the cure

After all the sunny days, sunny days, come around the bend,
After all the sunny days, sunny days, will I lose the plot again?
After all the sunny days, sunny days, come around the bend,
After all the sunny days, sunny days, will I lose the plot again?
Will I lose the plot again? Will I lose the plot again?

I knew Bob before he was 'Slim'. Then lost touch. Always followed him musically from Buzz Barker and the Atomic Bums to his solo work. I was never much into listening to live music at First Ave or bars so I didn't really get to watch him play and sing. I did see him open for Roseanne Cash once. Take care Bob! clayb
